Struggling with Worker Overtime Pay and Leave Policies: How Should I Handle This?

Overtime Pay and Leave Record Issues

I am Pravin, facing some problems with Worker OT and Leave Record. What about overtime pay for workers? I have paid wages only for working days in the company and made P.F deductions only for working days. I do not deduct P.F for W/Off payments or OT. Therefore, I request suggestions on what to do about the overtime. Management does not approve leave for workers for more than one year of work.

Regards, Pravin

Different organizations will have different policies on leave and other topics, so please review your policy thoroughly and ask for suggestions. Your question is not clear; could you please specify the department you are working in? Kindly state your concerns clearly.

Dear Saanika, I would like to ask you how to calculate overtime. Can wages be paid to laborers for leave? And is there a specific format for this? I am from the HR department and have just joined a new company.

Thank you.

To be frank, your question is not clear. But I will give you an answer as per my perception. Overtime amount will be double the gross of the employee by converting it into hours.

Example Calculation

For example, if the gross is 10,000 and overtime hours are 20 hours, with a month having 30 days, then the overtime amount is calculated as follows:

Overtime amount = 2 * ((10,000 / 30 * 8 (total working hours per day)) * 20) = 2 * 840 = 1680/-

PF should be calculated on the earned (basic + DA), i.e., 12% from the employee.
