Start with weighted overtime
Two pay rates, a shift differential, or a promised bonus can change your overtime rate. Calculate one workweek here, or open the weighted overtime calculator for the full worked example and sources.
With 36 hours at $22, 12 hours at $25, a $3 differential on 12 of those hours and a $120 weekly bonus, gross pay is $1,352. That includes a $104 half-time overtime premium.
