Frequently asked questions
What multiplier should I use?
1.5 for time-and-a-half and 2.0 for double time are the most common, but check your award or agreement.
Does overtime attract super?
Generally no — overtime is usually excluded from ordinary time earnings for super guarantee purposes.
Is overtime taxed more?
It is taxed at your marginal rate. It can look higher on a single payslip because withholding annualises that pay period.
