Kuwait Overtime Pay Estimator
Estimate a possible overtime amount from your monthly wage and overtime hours. The multiplier is editable because eligibility and calculation rules depend on the applicable employment terms and law.
How this tool works
Estimate overtime pay in Kuwait using your monthly wage, overtime hours and an adjustable multiplier. Article 66 of Law No. 6/2010 describes a minimum 25% premium for overtime in a similar period; weekly rest days and official holidays have separate rules. This tool does not determine which multiplier applies to your case. Enter your own values to generate an estimate. Results are informational and may not reflect your exact legal entitlement, provider quote or personal circumstances.
Important note
Uniqmont Kuwait is an independent information website, not a government authority, bank, exchange house or law firm. Confirm important decisions using official sources.
Frequently asked questions
Is this an official Kuwait overtime decision?
No. It is a planning estimate only. Confirm the applicable overtime formula and eligibility with the Public Authority for Manpower or a qualified adviser.
What to verify before comparing overtime pay
Use the calculator as an estimate and check the wage basis, working schedule and overtime category that apply to your contract. Keep a record of the dates, start and finish times, rest days and public holidays worked. The legal treatment can depend on the type of day and the applicable employment rules.
Keep supporting records
- Save your duty roster, attendance record and approved overtime request.
- Compare the payslip with the hours actually worked.
- Ask payroll to explain the hourly wage basis and any exclusions.
- For a dispute, seek guidance from the Public Authority for Manpower or a qualified adviser.
