    Calculating overtime hours on a daily and weekly basis


    Hi, I'm very new to excel and don't understand big words so please be gentle with me.

    I need a timesheet that calculates overtime based on a 38 Monday to Friday week.
    We work two 12 hour shifts starting at 7am and 7pm seven days a week.
    Saturdays are 1.5 for the first 2 hours, double time for the next 10 hours. Sundays are double time all day. I have them covered.
    Monday to Friday is 8 hours normal time, 2 hours (max) at 1.5 and double for any hours therafter.
    Pretty simple so far, however on Friday it is 6 hours normal time (to reach the 38hour target) , 1.5 for the next 2 hours and double time thereafter.
    The tricky bit is, we don't always work 8 hours each day so the normal hours worked on a Friday may be up to 8 hours to meet the 38 hour week requirement before overtime begins.

    Basically what I need is a formula that will give me up to a maximum of 6 hours on a friday if 32 normal hours have already been worked, or a maximum of 8 hours if the weekly normal time is less than 32 hours.
    Thanks for any help you can give me

    I think the formula you want in G6 is =MAX(6,MIN(8,38-SUM(G2:G5)))

    Hi,

    ahhh, I can get back in. Sorry for the slow response, I was experiencing a Database Error.
    Reece, thanks but no it doesn't work.

    Andrew, thankyou, it's almost perfect except if the employee doesn't work the Friday or perhaps only does 3 hours, I still get a total of 6 hours worked.
    How can I get it to except F6 as the total if it's value is less than 6?
    Many thanks
    Fuzz

    Thankyou for your help. I have a working file. It's a bit messy, I have a formula hidden in G10 because I don't know how to nest it in with the rest of Fridays formulas.
    I've attached the file incase someone else has the same work scenario as me, and can use it.
    Thanks again.
