Overtime in a payroll total

Questions

Is this payroll software?

No. It is a calculator. It does not run payroll, keep records or work out taxes.

How is overtime handled for each person?

HoursPad compares each person's weekly hours with the overtime line you set and counts the extra hours at the multiplier you set.

Are my names and rates saved?

No. Everything stays in your browser tab and is gone when you close it.
