Payroll review workflow

How to use this Alabama page without over-trusting it

  1. 1. Match the workweek first. Enter the actual days worked for one seven-day payroll week before you read the overtime result.
  2. 2. Check which rule fired. This page shows whether the result came from weekly overtime, daily overtime, double time, or another Alabama trigger.
  3. 3. Escalate edge cases early. If the week involves bonuses, shift premiums, exemption questions, or industry carve-outs, use the result as a documented estimate, not the last word.
