$25 an Hour Overtime Calculator
If you earn $25 an hour, your overtime rate depends on your employer’s pay policy.
Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), most U.S. workers must receive 1.5 times their regular pay for every hour worked over 40 in a week.
Some employers also offer 2x or even 2.5x rates for holidays or weekend shifts.
How Overtime Pay Works at $25 an Hour
Here’s what your overtime pay looks like at different multipliers:
| Overtime Rate | Multiplier | Hourly Pay | Example: 5 Overtime Hours | Total Overtime Pay |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Overtime (Time-and-a-Half) | 1.5x | $37.50/hour | 5 × $37.50 = $187.50 | $187.50 |
| Double Time | 2x | $50/hour | 5 × $50 = $250 | $250 |
| Weekend/Holiday Overtime (2.5x) | 2.5x | $62.50/hour | 5 × $62.50 = $312.50 | $312.50 |
For example, if you worked 45 hours in one week, you’d earn $1,000 in regular pay (40 × $25) plus $187.50 in overtime (5 × $37.50) — for a total of $1,187.50 before taxes.
Example Quick Formula
Overtime Pay = Hourly Rate × Overtime Multiplier × Overtime Hours
For someone earning $25/hour with 6 overtime hours at 1.5x:
→ $25 × 1.5 × 6 = $225 in overtime pay.
That’s how easy it is to estimate your $25 an hour overtime rate — and see how much extra money those extra hours really bring in.
