87 OVERTIME
WORK
REPORTER: LEAH ESPEJO
 Work may be performed beyond eight (8) hours a
day provided that the employee is paid for the
ART. 87 overtime work, an additional compensation
OVERTIME equivalent to his regular wage plus at least twenty-
WORK five percent (25%) thereof. Work performed
beyond eight hours on a holiday or rest day shall
be paid an additional compensation equivalent to
the rate of the first eight hours on a holiday or rest
day plus at least thirty percent (30%) thereof.
CONDITIONS:

1. ORDINARY DAY
2. REST DAY OR SPECIAL DAY
3. REST DAY FALLING ON SPECIAL DAY
4. REGULAR HOLIDAY
5. REST DAY FALLING ON A REGULAR HOLIDAY
ORDINARY DAY

Overtime rate on an ordinary day is equal to the

regular hourly rate multiplied by 125%

OT Rate=125%*Hourly Rate*No.of overtime hours

worked
 ORDINARY DAY

Example:
Michael works 8 hours a day as an office staff. His daily wage is ₱ 537 (Manila Rate). His employer told them that
they can render a maximum of 4 hours a day as an overtime work. On one Monday, Michael decided to work for 11
hours. How much was his wage for that day?
Hourly Rate- P537/8= P67.125
O.P. = 1.25x 67.125 x 3
O.P. = P251.718
P537 + P251.72 = P788. 72
REST DAY OR SPECIAL DAY
(FOR THE FIRST 8 HOURS)

If an employee works on his rest day or on a

special day, the rate will be a regular hourly
rate multiplied by 130%.
Rest Day Rate=Regular Hourly Rate X 130%
O.P. = 130% x Hourly Rate x No. of
overtimes worked
O.P. = 1.30 x 67.125 x 8
O.P. = P698.10
REST DAY OR SPECIAL DAY
(IN EXCESS OF THE FIRST 8 HOURS)
O.P. = 169% x Hourly Rate x No. of Hours Worked
=1.69 x 67.125 x 4
= P453. 77
P453.77
+ P698.10
