How to use this result
An extra shift may cross your overtime threshold partway through. Enter the hours you already worked and the paid hours in the shift so the model can split the additional hours correctly.
The model assumes earlier hours used the same base rate without other premiums. It includes the extra-shift differential and incentive in the weekly regular rate, then compares the total week against the week without the shift.
The formula
Worked example
Using the example inputs loaded above:
$659.33
Extra gross pay for this shift.
Common questions
Can I use this for a separate PRN employer?
Set prior hours to zero for a separate, independent job. Workweek aggregation can be more complicated for joint employers.
What if an incentive covers more than this workweek?
This model allocates the entered incentive to this week only. Use the properly allocated amount from payroll for a multiweek bonus.
