Overtime refers to the additional hours worked by an employee beyond their standard working hours, typically as specified in their employment contract. In many countries, employees who work overtime are entitled to extra pay, often at a higher rate than their regular hourly wage, such as time-and-a-half or double time, depending on local labor laws. Overtime is commonly required during peak business periods or for meeting project deadlines. While it can help organizations meet increased demand, excessive overtime can lead to employee burnout and decreased job satisfaction, making it essential for employers to manage it effectively.
