tidstillegg
Tidstillegg, also known as overtime pay, is a form of compensation provided to employees for working additional hours beyond their regular working hours. The purpose of tidstillegg is to incentivize employees to work extra hours and to ensure that they are fairly compensated for their additional effort. The amount of tidstillegg varies depending on the country, industry, and specific employment contract. In many jurisdictions, overtime pay is calculated as a percentage of the employee's regular hourly wage, typically ranging from 125% to 150% of the regular rate. Some countries and industries may have different overtime rates or additional requirements, such as mandatory rest periods or maximum overtime hours. Employers are generally required to provide tidstillegg to employees who work overtime, although there may be exceptions for certain types of work or specific circumstances. Employees who work overtime may also be entitled to additional benefits, such as holiday pay or vacation time, depending on their employment contract and local laws.
