If I worked 140 hours over time at a rate of (R300 per hour) how will this be taxed? will It be added to my basic salary and then taxed as a whole or will the over time be taxed separately and what percentage? are there specific percentages being taxed in different "brackets" or is it a flat rate?

It will be added to your salary and taxed per the tax tables (i.e in the same way as your salary)
