Understanding Overtime Pay in the Philippines

In the Philippines, overtime pay is the additional compensation given to employees for work performed beyond the standard eight (8) hours a day. The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) sets specific rates depending on when the overtime occurred—whether it's a normal workday, a rest day, or a holiday.

Standard Rates Table

Type of Day	OT Rate (Work > 8 Hours)
Ordinary Workday	125% of Hourly Rate
Rest Day or Special Holiday	169% of Hourly Rate
Regular Holiday	260% of Hourly Rate

How to Calculate Manually

Follow these steps to compute your overtime pay:

1. Find your Hourly Rate: Daily Rate ÷ 8 hours.
2. Determine the Multiplier: Identify if it is an ordinary day (1.25), rest day (1.69), or holiday (2.60).
3. Apply Night Differential: If the work was done between 10 PM and 6 AM, multiply the rate by an additional 1.10 (10%).
4. Formula: (Hourly Rate × Multiplier × Night Diff) × Overtime Hours.

Example Calculation

If you earn ₱800 per day and work 2 hours of overtime on an Ordinary Day during the night shift:

• Hourly Rate: 800 / 8 = 100 PHP/hr
• Base OT Rate: 100 × 1.25 = 125 PHP/hr
• With Night Diff: 125 × 1.10 = 137.5 PHP/hr
• Total OT Pay: 137.5 × 2 hours = ₱275.00

Key Terms to Remember

• Night Shift Differential: An extra 10% premium for work scheduled during late hours.
• Regular Holiday: These are fixed dates like Christmas or Independence Day (usually 200% pay).
• Special Non-Working Day: Days like Ninoy Aquino Day (usually 130% pay).
