Frequently Asked Questions

What is gross pay vs net pay?

Gross pay is total earnings before deductions. Net pay is take-home after taxes and deductions.

What deductions come from gross pay?

Federal/state taxes, Social Security, Medicare, health insurance, retirement contributions, and garnishments.

How is overtime calculated for salaried employees earning below the threshold?

Salaried non-exempt employees must have their salary converted to an hourly rate by dividing by 40 hours, then overtime is paid at 1.5x that rate for hours over 40.

Do double-time or special overtime rates affect gross pay calculations?

Some industries require double-time for holidays or hours beyond a certain limit. Replace the standard 1.5 multiplier with 2.0 for those special overtime calculations.
