The rules this calculator uses
Federal (FLSA). Hours over 40 in a workweek are paid at least 1.5 times the regular rate. There is no federal daily overtime, and weekends or holidays don't trigger overtime by themselves. Source: U.S. DOL Fact Sheet #23: Overtime Pay Requirements of the FLSA.
California. For adult non-exempt employees:
- Over 8 and up to 12 hours in a workday: 1.5×.
- Over 12 hours in a workday: 2×.
- Seventh consecutive day of work in a workweek: first 8 hours at 1.5×, hours over 8 at 2×.
- Over 40 hours in the workweek: 1.5×.

No double-counting. Each hour is paid at one rate only. Hours already paid as daily or seventh-day overtime don't count again toward the 40 weekly straight-time hours. Weekly overtime is taken from the straight-time hours that come after the 40th, in day order.
What this doesn't cover. Exempt employees, alternative workweek schedules, other states' daily overtime rules, and a regular rate that includes bonuses, commissions or more than one pay rate. Those change the math.
