At a glance
The Short Answer
At $25 per hour, a standard 40-hour week pays $1,000 gross. Work 48 hours and overtime kicks in: 40 hours at $25 plus 8 hours at $37.50 (1.5x) comes to $1,300. These are pre-tax figures — actual take-home is lower after federal, state, and FICA withholding.

Watch the Break Deduction
If you are on-site 9:00-17:00 with an unpaid 30-minute lunch, your paid day is 7.5 hours — a five-day week totals 37.5 hours, paying $937.50, not $1,000. Enter your real clock-in, clock-out, and break minutes in the calculator above for an exact weekly figure.
The Bigger Picture at $25/Hour
- Biweekly paycheck (40 hrs/week): $2,000 gross
- Monthly average: about $4,333 gross ($1,000 x 52 / 12)
- Annual salary equivalent: $52,000 gross at 40 hours per week, before any overtime
Every 5 hours of weekly overtime at time-and-a-half adds $187.50 — roughly $9,750 a year if sustained.
