⚙️ How Payworks Calculates Your Pay
Regular Pay
Regular hours × your hourly rate. Most employers in Canada use a biweekly pay cycle (26 periods/year).
Overtime Pay
Overtime hours × (hourly rate × 1.5). In Ontario, overtime applies after 44 hrs/week. Shown as a separate line on your pay stub.
Stat Holiday Pay (StatPay)
Two components: StatPay@1.0 = public holiday pay (last 4 weeks wages ÷ 20). StatPay@1.5 = premium for working on stat (hours × rate × 1.5).
Vacation Pay (VacEachPay)
4% of all gross earnings for this period (including OT and stat pay). Added to each paycheque rather than banked separately.
Tax Deductions
Federal tax, provincial tax, CPP and EI are calculated by annualizing this period's gross pay and applying 2026 CRA rates.

About the Hourly Paycheck Calculator
This calculator is designed specifically for hourly employees in Canada and mirrors how popular payroll systems like Payworks calculate your pay stub. Unlike basic salary calculators, this tool handles the complexity of hourly pay including overtime at 1.5×, statutory holiday pay (both for working on a stat and for taking the day off), and vacation pay at 4% or 6% paid each paycheque.
The stat holiday pay calculation follows the standard Canadian formula: your total wages in the last 4 work weeks divided by 20 (the number of working days in 4 weeks). This gives you roughly one day of pay per stat holiday, shown as StatPay@1.0 on Payworks pay stubs. If you also worked on the stat holiday, you receive StatPay@1.5 — your regular rate × 1.5 for those hours.
All 2026 federal and provincial tax rates, CPP (5.95%), and EI (1.63%) are applied automatically. Quebec employees receive QPP and QPIP calculations with the correct federal abatement.
