Fair Work says when overtime applies differs across awards and registered agreements, and can also depend on an employment contract. Fair Work Ombudsman — Overtime pay.

How the calculator works

For each day, the tool subtracts the start time from the finish time, treats an earlier finish time as an overnight shift, then subtracts the unpaid break. The weekly total is shown as hours and minutes and as decimal hours.

The optional pay figure is a simple base-rate estimate: total hours × hourly rate. It does not determine tax, overtime, penalty rates, allowances or legal entitlements.
