Fixed Number of Days
Monthly Salary
Ordinary Rate Pay (daily rate) = Salary/ (Number of working days set in the system)
Example:
- Salary = RM 1,800
- Overtime Fixed Days set in the System = 26
- Normal working hours : 8 hours / day
- Overtime hours taken = 6
Ordinary rate pay (daily rate) = RM 1,800 / 26 = RM 69.2307
Hourly rate pay = RM 69.2307 / 8 hours = RM 8.6538
Working Days in Current Calendar Month
Monthly Salary
Ordinary Rate Pay (daily rate) = Salary/ (Total days in the month - Total weekends in the month)
Example:
- Salary = RM 1,800
- Month = March 2023 (23 working days if 5-day work day)
- Normal working hours : 8 hours / day
- Overtime hours taken = 6
Ordinary rate pay (daily rate) = RM 1,800 / 23 = RM 78.2608
Hourly rate pay = RM 78.2608 / 8 hours = RM 9.7826
All Days in Current Calendar Month
Monthly Salary
Ordinary Rate Pay (daily rate) = Salary/ (calendar days in the month)
Example:
- Salary = RM 1,800
- Month = March 2023 (31 days in calendar month)
- Normal working hours : 8 hours / day
- Overtime hours taken = 6
Ordinary rate pay (daily rate) = RM 1,800 / 31 = RM 58.0645
Hourly rate pay = RM 58.0645 / 8 hours = RM 7.2580
