Explicación
Overtime is calculated on the 'regular rate of pay,' which includes not just the base hourly wage but also nondiscretionary bonuses, shift differentials, commissions, and certain incentive pay. Truly discretionary gifts, expense reimbursements, and employer health-premium contributions are generally excluded. Failing to fold a production bonus into the regular rate is a common overtime error that underpays workers.
