Dear Seniors,

For the calculation of overtime (OT), apart from Basic and DA, can we include HRA, CCA, other allowances, and conveyance, or simply Basic and DA? Kindly help me in this regard.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

Dear,

Overtime should be paid at double the rates of wages. If your definition of wages, as per the Payment of Wages Act, includes HRA, CCA, and other allowances, then overtime should be calculated as twice the basic salary and all allowances.

Thank you.

Dear Member,

Section 59 of the Factories Act states that overtime should be paid at double the wages, which includes basic wages and all other allowances that are being paid to the employees.

I agree with Mr. Malik's reply.

Dear Mr. Malik and others,

With due respect, I beg to state that the interpretation of Sec 59 is not being done in the right way. Please refer to Sec 59 (1) & (2) for further clarification. Eagerly waiting for your reply.
