We have started our own industry, and I am heading the HR department. I would require anyone's guidance in knowing about what would be the wage to an employee working on a daily wage basis if he is doing overtime.

Dear,
Your query is not clear, but it seems that you want to know the overtime (OT) payment rate for daily wage employees working with you. We do not know which of the Acts are applicable to your unit in relation to OT payment. OT payment provisions are there in the State Shops Act, Minimum Wages Act, Factories Act, 1948, etc. Therefore, first examine which of the Act(s) are applicable to your industry and then go through the relevant provisions relating to your query.

For daily-rated employees, wages are paid for eight hours of work on a daily basis. To calculate overtime payment/wages, first, normal wages per hour need to be calculated by dividing the daily wages by 8 (eight). Then, the overtime wages per hour will be double the normal wages per hour.
I hope this clarifies things for you.

Santosh is right on this. However, I would rather discourage daily wage earners from working overtime, as they will tend to go slow during normal working hours to earn some extra money through overtime. The best way to handle this is to get the work done through contract work.

In my organization, as an HR professional, I do not pay overtime. Instead, I compensate them by giving them compensatory offs. It's a request to all HR personnel to not entertain the concept of overtime, which brings more burden on management.
