Find net working time
It subtracts only the unpaid break from the daily start-to-finish span. A paid break should remain in working time.

If you receive a fixed salary, regular-hours pay may already be included. Compare the additional and overtime rows with your payslip; the estimated gross total is most useful for hourly-paid work.
Why this calculator works week by week
Evaluate each week separately
It does not infer overtime from a monthly total or a universal eight-hour day. The weekly result is multiplied by the number of identical weeks.
Separate pay bands
For Turkey, hours between a contract below 45 and the 45-hour limit use 1.25×; hours above 45 use 1.5×. Other profiles apply their stated rule.
VISIBLE COUNTRY-SPECIFIC ASSUMPTIONS
What each country profile covers
Turkey
The general model uses 45 hours per week. When the contract is below 45, hours up to 45 are additional hours; hours beyond 45 are overtime. Averaging arrangements, night work, holidays and sector exceptions need separate review.
United States
The general federal FLSA model pays at least 1.5× after 40 hours in a fixed 168-hour workweek for covered nonexempt workers. State rules, exemptions and the regular-rate calculation can change the result.
United Kingdom
There is no single general statutory overtime premium; the contract normally sets the rate. Average total pay must still meet the applicable minimum wage, so the threshold and multiplier remain editable.
Other countries
Enter the threshold and multiplier from your contract and national authority. ILO databases are a useful starting point for comparison, but current national law and the applicable contract control.
TRANSPARENT METHOD
Formula and worked example
Net week = workdays × (gross daily span − unpaid break). For Turkey, regular hours end at the contract threshold, additional hours run up to 45, and overtime begins above 45. Pay = hours × base hourly rate × the applicable multiplier.
Example: five 10-hour scheduled days with a one-hour unpaid break equal 45 net hours. Under Turkey’s general profile, a 45-hour contract produces no overtime; a 40-hour contract produces five additional hours paid at 1.25×.
PRIMARY SOURCES
Official sources and scope
The profiles model only the general rules below. A contract, collective agreement, exemption, sector rule, court decision, state law or national rule can produce a different result.
FAQ
Overtime calculator FAQ
Does overtime always begin after eight hours in a day?+
No. There is no universal daily rule. Turkey generally uses a 45-hour week, the US federal FLSA generally uses 40 hours for covered nonexempt workers, and other countries or states may differ.
Should a break be deducted from work hours?+
Deduct an unpaid break that is not treated as working time. Do not automatically remove a paid break or another interval counted as work.
Why does the calculator not divide monthly salary by one fixed number?+
One divisor is not accurate for every contract. A schedule below 45 weekly hours, for example, may require a different hourly base. Use the base gross hourly rate supported by your contract or payslip.
Is this official payroll or legal advice?+
No. It is a personal estimate with visible assumptions, not payroll, accounting or legal advice.
