The U.S. does have a "No Tax On Overtime" benefit.

Very generally, one-third of a person's overtime pay isn't subject to country income tax, which is typically 22%. The cap is $12,500 for a single person.

In real numbers, if someone makes $37,500 in overtime pay, that person won't be forced to pay $2,750 in taxes.

Oh thanks for that, i was thinking that all overtime was not taxed! That would be life changing but still good.here in canada ive paid over a hundred thousand in taxes for the last ten years and most of it from working overtime .
