Thailand Overtime Pay Calculator: 1.5×, Holiday and 3× Rates
Calculate overtime pay in Thailand: hourly wage from the monthly salary ÷ 240, overtime at 1.5×, holiday work at 1× or 2× and holiday overtime at 3×.
Hourly wage = monthly salary ÷ 30 ÷ 8. Monthly-paid employees already receive their salary for holidays, so working a holiday adds 1× the hourly wage; daily-paid employees get 2×.
What it does
Under sections 61 to 63 of the Labour Protection Act, overtime on a working day is paid at least 1.5 times the hourly wage, work on a holiday within normal hours at 1 or 2 times depending on how the employee is paid, and overtime on a holiday at 3 times. Total overtime and holiday work may not exceed 36 hours a week.
How to use it
- Type the monthly salary.
- Add the overtime hours, the holiday hours and the holiday overtime hours.
- Read the hourly wage and the extra pay.

Frequently asked questions
How is overtime calculated in Thailand?
Divide the monthly salary by 240 for the hourly wage and multiply by 1.5. With 24,000 baht the hour is 100 baht and an overtime hour 150 baht, so 10 hours pay 1,500 baht.
How much is holiday work paid?
For monthly-paid staff, 1× the hourly wage on top of the salary (800 baht for 8 hours at 24,000 baht a month); for daily-paid staff, 2×. Overtime on a holiday is 3×: 300 baht an hour.
Is there a limit on overtime?
Yes: overtime and holiday work together may not exceed 36 hours a week, and overtime needs the employee's consent each time except in urgent or continuous work.
