Dear Sir,

I have a query about overtime. Our office hours start from 9:30 to 7:00, so whoever does duty after working hours is considered overtime.

Please find attached the OT calculation for your perusal. Kindly check and let me know if there are any corrections needed. Also, please advise if we should consider lunchtime in overtime calculations. Additionally, if there are any rules regarding overtime, please let me know.

An early reply would be highly appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,

Dear Sujata,

Please clarify the question. If your question is related to the Vehicle Bill, then here is the reply: If you have taken this vehicle on rent along with the driver charge, then it totally depends on the agreement made at the time of hiring the vehicle.

Hi Sujata,

I have gone through your calculation. It seems that the driver is paid a monthly salary of INR 12500, and the working days are 27. You have calculated overtime at a single rate.

I think the calculation should be as follows:

OT = (Gross salary / (month day i.e. 30 or 31)) / 8 x No. of OT hours x 2.

We are providing payment to the driver because we hire the vehicle along with the driver, and the cost of the driver or payment to the driver is covered by the vehicle owner. The minimum working hours should be 8 hours.

If the vehicle driver is an employee of the company, then the calculation is as follows:
Normal working hours are from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm (excluding lunchtime, i.e., 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm).
Overtime (OT) calculation: Suppose from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, OT will be 2 hours.
The driver's rate is as per the minimum rate of the central or state regulations.
OT rate is twice the rate of normal hours.

Dear All,

He is not a driver; he is an admin assistant, and he has to go outside for official work, so we provide a petrol allowance of Rs. 2.50 per km.

Secondly, our working hours are 9:30, not 8.

So, please let me know if the attached calculation is correct. Also, as per our company policy, if any employee works fewer hours, then we will not consider the extra minutes for overtime.

Hi Sujata,

Please let us know whether the company has a policy of paying its employees at a single rate of wages/salary. Secondly, does your company have a 5-day working week or a 6-day working week? Overtime should be paid at double the rate of wages/salary.

If your company has a 5-day working week, then the calculation for overtime should be as follows: OT = ((Gross Salary / Monthly days i.e., 20 days or 21 days applicable) / 9.50) x 2) x No. of OT Hours.
