1. **Problem:** Calculate the overtime pay for an employee who worked beyond 8 hours on both a regular holiday and on their rest day. 2. **Formula and Rules:** - Regular holiday overtime pay rate is typically 200% of the daily rate plus 30% for overtime. - Rest day overtime pay rate is typically 130% of the daily rate plus 30% for overtime. - Total pay for overtime on a regular holiday that is also a rest day combines these multipliers. 3. **Step-by-step Calculation:** 1. Let the daily rate be $D$. 2. Regular holiday pay for 8 hours: $$D \times 2 = 2D$$ 3. Overtime pay rate on a regular holiday: $$2D \times 1.3 = 2.6D$$ 4. Rest day pay for 8 hours: $$D \times 1.3 = 1.3D$$ 5. Overtime pay rate on rest day: $$1.3D \times 1.3 = 1.69D$$ 6. Since the day is both a regular holiday and rest day, the correct multiplier is the product of both overtime multipliers: $$2 \times 1.3 \times 1.3 = 3.38$$ 7. Overtime pay per hour beyond 8 hours: $$D \times 3.38$$ 4. **Explanation:** - The employee is entitled to a higher pay rate because the day is both a regular holiday and a rest day. - Overtime pay is calculated by multiplying the daily rate by the combined multiplier. - This ensures compliance with labor laws and fair compensation. **Final answer:** The overtime pay rate per hour beyond 8 hours on a regular holiday that is also a rest day is $$3.38 \times D$$ where $D$ is the daily rate.
