This is a common misconception and is overly simplified. A true overtime rate should be time and 1/2 on the "Base Rate" of pay or the factor of 1.5 against the unburdened rate. Example: Each employer (or a Contractor that supplies and laborer) has profit, overhead, and taxation built into a billable rate. If I provide a laborer to a client at a Rate of $50 an hour, only $40 of this is actually being paid to the laborer. The rest is taxes, insurence, benefits, and profit. An overtime factor should never be applied to a rate that contains this. The OT rate should be 1.5 X $40 plus the $10 overhead costs. Which would be $70.00 hour. If you're being charged an OT rate of $75 hour then you're being gouged.
