Abstract

In the absence of clear guidance in current labor law, judicial practice often results in significant differences in the determination of overtime pay, which can easily lead to disputes between employees and employers over the amount of overtime pay. Once the increase in overtime pay has been determined, the calculation basis for overtime pay determines the amount of overtime pay. Therefore, it is crucial to set a reasonable range for the calculation basis of overtime pay. This not only helps protect the legitimate rights and interests of workers and ensures that they receive the income they deserve for their overtime work, but also helps companies effectively control labor costs and maximize economic benefits.
