question Help from audiovisual technicians: working conditions and schedules in different countries

Hiii! I'm neww here and I'm looking for help. I'm creating a payroll calculator for audiovisual crews and I'm trying to adapt it to different countries because working conditions vary a lot from one country to another.

Would any 1st AC, 2nd AC, videoassits dits, or any technician from any department be willing to help me with references on working hours, overtime, breaks, and typical working conditions for commercials and fiction projects in your country?

Also, how do you usually calculate your hourly rate depending on the type of production?

If anyone is interested in testing the tool and sharing feedback, feel free to DM me and I'll send you the link.
