hourly wage = 45,000.00 / 225 = 200.00 TRY
Overtime hourly rate
overtime hourly rate = hourly wage × 150%
overtime hourly rate = 200.00 × 150% = 300.00 TRY
Overtime pay
overtime pay = monthly gross wage / 225 × 150% × overtime hours
overtime pay = 45,000.00 / 225 × 150% × 10 = 3,000.00 TRY
Time off in lieu of pay
time off = overtime hours × 1.5
time off = 10 × 1.5 = 15 hours

Formula

Hourly wage = monthly gross wage / 225
Overtime pay = monthly gross wage / 225 × 150% × overtime hours
Extra hours pay = monthly gross wage / 225 × 125% × extra hours
Holiday pay = monthly gross wage / 30 × days
Time off = overtime hours × 1.5 + extra hours × 1.25

225 is 30 days times 7.5 hours a day; settled practice finds the hourly wage of a monthly-paid worker this way. 150% is the rate for overtime and 125% the rate for extra hours (Labour Law art. 41). Holiday pay is one daily wage added to the monthly wage (art. 47). Time off is in hours and replaces the higher pay. Amounts are rounded to the kuruş.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is overtime pay calculated in Türkiye?

Divide the monthly gross wage by 225 to get the hourly wage. Each overtime hour is paid at 150% of it, each extra hour at 125%.

What is the difference between overtime and extra hours?

Overtime is work above 45 hours a week and is paid 50% more. If the contract sets fewer than 45 hours a week, work above the contract hours and up to 45 is extra hours, paid 25% more.

How much is public holiday work paid in Türkiye?

A worker who works on a national or public holiday gets one more daily wage for each such day, on top of the monthly wage (Labour Law art. 47). The daily wage is the monthly gross wage divided by 30. The day's own wage is already in the monthly wage, so the worker is paid two daily wages for that day in total.

Can I take time off instead of overtime pay?

Yes. Instead of the higher pay, the worker may take 1 hour 30 minutes off for each overtime hour and 1 hour 15 minutes for each extra hour (art. 41). The time off is used within six months and replaces the pay.

How many overtime hours are allowed in a year in Türkiye?

Overtime cannot exceed 270 hours in a year (Labour Law art. 41).

Is overtime pay taxed in Türkiye?

Yes. Overtime pay is added to the month's wage, and social security premiums, income tax and stamp duty are deducted from the total on the payslip. The calculator gives the gross amount.

Calculation rules

Each overtime hour is paid 50% above the hourly wage, each extra hour 25% above it (Labour Law no. 4857 art. 41).
Hourly wage = monthly gross wage / 225 (30 days × 7.5 hours). Each pay is computed from the monthly wage in one go and rounded to the kuruş (half up); the hourly wage and the hourly rates are also shown rounded to the kuruş.
A worker who works on a national or public holiday gets one more daily wage for each such day, on top of the monthly wage (art. 47). Daily wage = monthly gross wage / 30. The calculator gives this additional pay; the day’s own wage is already in the monthly wage, which is why some sources show twice the daily wage.
Instead of the pay, the worker may take 1 hour 30 minutes of time off for each overtime hour and 1 hour 15 minutes for each extra hour (art. 41). Time off replaces the pay, not both; holiday work gives no time off.
The result is gross: this pay is added to the month’s wage, and social security premiums, income tax and stamp duty are deducted from the total on the payslip. Use the gross to net salary calculator for the net.
Work on the weekly rest day, work above 7.5 hours on a holiday and other rates in a collective agreement are not included.
