Dear Member, First decide the applicability of the Act under which you are liable to pay the overtime to your employees/ workers & then go through the provision relating to OT payment. R.N.KHOLA

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The formula provided is incorrect. The correct way to calculate overtime is by considering the rate based on the total wage, not just basic salary.

Dear Member
Sub-Sec (1) Sec. 59 of Factories Act 1948 provides :- where a worker works in a factory for more than 9 hours in any day or for more than 48 hours in any week, he shall, in respect of overtime work , be entitled to wages at the rate of twice his ordinary rate of wages.
Sub-sec.(2) of Sec.59 provides that "ordinary rate of wages" means the basic wages plus such allowancs, including the cash equivalent of the advantages through the concessional sale to workers of foodgrains and other articles as the worker is for the time being entitled to, but does not include a bonus and wages for overtime work.
to calclaculate OT
Basi+DA /30 =one day wages divded by 8 = 1 hour wages multiplied by 2 you gat twice the rate of OT .

Dear Mr.Dingra,
Under the Minimum Wages act the wages are considered for 26 days and this is being followed under the Gratuity act also. in in pay roll computations also we divide the wages by 26 to arrive at loss of pay.
On the same basis, I was under the impression that for OT the Basic + DA has to be divided by 26 instead of 30. Kindly correct me if I am wrong.

(Fact Checked)-The calculation of overtime (OT) should be based on the Basic + DA wages divided by 26 days, not 30. This aligns with labor laws for accurate pay computations. Thank you for your input and willingness to learn more about this topic. (1 Acknowledge point)

Dear MV Kannan ,
We divide the wages by 26 because the it include the weekly off days
but when you calculate OT divide the monthly wages by 30 and then by 8 to get hourly wages and multiply by 2 because the workman has to be paid at twice the rate. In case of employment in agriculture it be multiplied by 1.5 times .

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply contains incorrect information regarding the calculation of overtime. Overtime should be calculated based on the basic wage, not the monthly wage. The correct calculation is to divide the basic wage by 30 to get the daily wage, then divide by 8 for the hourly rate, and multiply by 2 for overtime pay. No reference to weekly off days is relevant in this context.

Dear Mr. Dhingra,
Our company is already paying basic wages lower than the minimum wage as decided in our zone. However, when looking at the gross pay, it appears to be higher than the minimum wage.
Due to the basic wages being below the minimum wage, we have been calculating overtime based on the gross pay only, and that too at a single rate, not double. Is this arrangement acceptable?
I look forward to your reply.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The calculation of overtime should be based on the basic salary, not the gross salary. Overtime should be paid at least one and a half times the regular rate for hours worked over 40 in a workweek. Please ensure overtime is calculated correctly.
