How overtime works in Pakistan

Under Pakistan's labor laws (including the Shops & Establishments Ordinance and the Factories Act framework), overtime is generally payable at twice the ordinary hourly rate — not 1.5× like in some other countries. If your normal hour is worth Rs 385, your overtime hour is worth Rs 770.

The overtime formula

Hourly rate = Monthly salary ÷ Divisor
Overtime pay = Hourly rate × 2 × Overtime hours

Worked example: salary Rs 80,000, divisor 208, 10 overtime hours → hourly = 80,000 ÷ 208 = Rs 384.62 → overtime = 384.62 × 2 × 10 = Rs 7,692.

The divisor question: 208 vs 173.33

The divisor changes your hourly rate, so overtime for the same salary differs between companies. Confirm with HR which one your employer uses.

Who qualifies for overtime?

Overtime provisions generally cover workmen-category employees. Managerial, supervisory and executive staff are commonly excluded under company policy, and some organizations pay a flat conveyance or meal allowance instead of hourly overtime. Your appointment letter is the final word.
