Eventually it gets extra pay (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

overtime

(Other definitions for overtime that I've seen before include "Extra hours (at work)" , "Hours worked and paid for beyond the usual amount" , "Pay for extra work" , "Work beyond normal hours? Remove it" , "Work outside normal hours" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
