50% on regular working days (CF art. 7, XVI) and 100% (paid double) on uncompensated Sundays and holidays (Law 605/1949, art. 9; TST Súmula 146), unless a collective agreement provides higher rates.

Calculate Brazilian overtime with DSR, reflexos, and legal or collective surcharges.
Overtime is not just the regular hour plus a little more: it carries a mandatory surcharge and, when habitual, spreads into several other pay items. The starting point is the value of the regular hour (the monthly salary, plus habitual bonuses such as night-shift or hazard pay, divided by the working-hours divisor, 220 for a 44-hour week, 200 for 40 hours, or 180 for 36 hours). On top of it comes the surcharge, at least 50% on weekdays (CF art. 7, XVI and CLT art. 59) and 100% on uncompensated Sundays and holidays (Law 605/1949, art. 9; TST Súmula 146), with a collective agreement allowed to set higher rates. CLT art. 59 caps overtime at 2 hours per day. Because habitual overtime integrates remuneration, it generates reflexos in the DSR, vacation, 13th salary and FGTS, and this calculator projects all of that from your hours grid, as an estimate.
First you find the regular hour value: in the standard 44-hour-week regime, divide the monthly salary by 220. Then apply the surcharge on it, 50% on a weekday turns a R$ 10 hour into R$ 15; 100% on a Sunday or holiday, into R$ 20. Collective agreements can raise these rates but never lower them below the constitutional minimum.
CLT art. 59 caps overtime at 2 hours a day. Working beyond that is irregular from a working-hours standpoint, but it does not remove the right to payment for the hours actually worked, the excess is still owed, with the surcharge.
Suppose a regular hour of R$ 10 and 20 hours of overtime at 50% in a month: 20 × R$ 15 = R$ 300 of overtime. On that amount comes the DSR reflexo: divide the total by the month's working days and multiply by the Sundays and holidays (TST Súmula 172). In a month with 25 working days and 5 rest days, the DSR would be R$ 300 ÷ 25 × 5 = R$ 60.
Habitual overtime (plus the DSR) further carries over into other items: it enters the average for vacation and 13th salary and raises the FGTS base (8% on total remuneration). That is why the real impact of frequent overtime is far larger than the month's standalone figure.
The keyword is habituality: occasional overtime is settled within the month, but habitual overtime integrates remuneration and generates reflexos. In the paid weekly rest, this comes from TST Súmula 172; in vacation, from CLT art. 142 §5 (the overtime average enters the calculation); in the 13th salary, from TST Súmula 45.
In the FGTS, the 8% deposit accrues on total remuneration, including overtime and the DSR reflexo (Law 8.036/1990, art. 15). Differences in unpaid overtime can be claimed within the five-year statute of limitations, and habitual off-the-books payment does not remove the right to the reflexos.
