  • Maintain transparent records for fair payroll

 

How Can I Use Jibble’s Overtime Calculator for Colombia?

Using Jibble’s overtime calculator for Colombia is quick and easy. Here are steps to get you started:

  1. Enter your pay rate — Specify how you are paid, whether hourly, daily, or monthly. This tells the calculator the base rate to use for regular and overtime pay.
  2. Enter your regular working hours — Input your standard daily and weekly hours (for example, up to 46 hours per week). This sets the baseline so the calculator knows which hours count as overtime.
  3. Enter the number of overtime hours worked — Add the extra hours beyond your standard schedule. Make sure to include only hours that qualify as overtime under Colombian labour law.
  4. Choose the overtime type — Select whether the overtime was worked during the day, at night, on a weekend, or on a public holiday. Different types have different pay multipliers under Colombian law.
  5. Click “Calculate” — The calculator instantly shows your total overtime pay on top of your regular wages, helping you avoid errors and stay compliant with Colombia overtime rules.
