Understand situations where 'time and a half' applies: overtime hours, holidays, and sometimes weekends. Workers at the factory get time and a half when they work on Sundays.
Pro Tip 2/3
Cultural Norm
'Time and a half' is common in countries with labor laws that mandate extra pay for overtime work. In the US, most employees earn time and a half for each hour of overtime.
Pro Tip 3/3
Not Guaranteed
Not all jobs offer 'time and a half'; it often depends on the contract or local labor laws. The contract states that our overtime will not be paid as time and a half.
