was just wondering what everyones overtime policy is at work? Might have to review mine and i wanted to know what everyone else is doing.
Do you get overtime?
Whats the pay rate for out of hours weekday work? (normal rate, 1.5x rate, 2x rate?)
Whats the pay rate for weekend work? (normal rate, 1.5x rate, 2x rate?)
When do you get paid overtime? (monthly with wages etc)
Do you round up the amount of time you have worked up to the nearest 15 slot? 30mins? 1hr? - For example if you worked out of hours on the weekday for 20 minutes, do you get paid for a half hour? an hour? or literally the 20 minutes?
Cheers folks.

i do over time, work for the nhs  its very confusing about my over time, im contracted for 9 hours on a sunday (7am til 4pm), i get extra pay for that as its a weekend and it works my hourly rate plus half my hourly rate per hour. although i have started doing overtime on a sat and sunday evenings til 10pm.
i also do one or two week day evening, 6pm til 10pm, but after 8pm my pay goes up like sunday, but i only get paid my hourly rate plus 1/3 of my hourly rate per hour, before 8pm i just get paid my normally hourly rate.
then i do 6.30am til 2.30pm, every weekday, this should be paid at my normally hourly rate, with no extra pay like the weekend for example, but this is where is gets strange  because i have done over 37.5 hours a week, i get paid extra pay (bit like sundays extra pay) for working any hours which dnt get the extra pay, so my weekday over time, i get paid my hourly rate plus 1/4 of my hourly rate per hour.
its all very confusing and not many people know that at work, but it works out i get paid more a month than my supervisors
although you have to keep a record of it cause they do screw your pay up a lot, because i get paid a month behind what ever i have worked

No overtime pay... unless in exceptional circumstances.
My working day "should" be 9.30 - 5.30 but I rarely finish before 6.30 and on some evenings can be here till gone 9.30. All without extra pay...I am expected to do it in this line of work.
Saying that I do have some quiet periods where I leave at 5.30 etc.

During the week I get paid 37 hours whether I do them or not. If I go over I don't get extra. But my travelling to work is part of that 37 so I dont much actual work.
For weekends I have to do 40 9 hour shifts a year, if I do two shifts in one weekend I get £220 overtime. And if you do 3 the you get £440. This year I've done two shifts every weekend apart from one.

1.5x normal wage. They wont pay overtime for any less than 30 mins so I couldn't put down 15 mins for example. Although personally if I worked 15 mins over I would round it up to 30 mins
The overtime is paid in to my account at the same time as my monthly wage so I get the lot on the last working day of the month. Which is good as it can add up to a nice extra lump of money sometimes.

I don't get paid overtime but I get a decent basic salary.
Plus I only work about 3 Saturdays in a year and rarely work past 6pm so I wouldn't get much anyway.

My mate used to work at Somerfield and they would get 1.5x basic for working Sundays. His only shift was a Sunday, and he still got 1.5x. Jammy bugger.

I don't get overtime per-se but I get a project by project payment.
There are certain development projects which we keep well away from the business and only those who need to know, know anything about it. Anything I do from home, I agree a rate up front for the project; I've just done a project converting a hull from 2D to 3D with a few modifications to make it a faster hull, I got £1000 for that. That took 24hours!!
However, for normal work I get no overtime at all,regardless of how long I'm in. My contract states soemthing like 40 hours per week plus any other hours deemed necessary by the business

Now, no
Formally, yes.
x1.5 weekdays
x2 at weekend
I used to do mine by the 1/2 hour (I took calls at home though which could last seconds sometimes, but each one rounded up to 30 min).
Used to be great, take 2-3 5 min calls and claim 1.5 hours OT

I don't really get overtime pay.
If i need to work late during the week then i just do it. Sometimes i need to do a 12 hour day (rare tbh) but the company is small and flexible, so i can roll up late most days and nothing is said. If i'm knackered from doing a long day, then i can come in a couple of hours late the next day or kick out a couple of hours early on a friday.
We charge out of hours (weekend) work to our clients at 1.5X whatever the basic quote was, so i can normally ask for £250 for working a Saturday or Sunday.
