How Ontario overtime works

A supported hourly worker earns 1.5× the regular rate for worked time above 44 hours in one employer-defined work week.

There is no general daily overtime trigger. A 13-hour day alone does not trigger overtime under this limited Ontario rule. Special rules, holidays and agreements can change the treatment.

Worked example

At $25/hour, a 48-hour work week produces 44 regular hours ($1,100) and 4 overtime hours ($150): $1,250 gross worked-time pay. At 44 hours, the same rate produces $1,100 with no overtime.

Illustrative arithmetic with confirmed supported conditions, not an eligibility or minimum-wage assessment.
