Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate hours worked?
Subtract the start time from the end time, then subtract any unpaid breaks. 9:00–17:30 with a 30-minute lunch is 8 hours.
How do I subtract a lunch break?
Work out the gross time between clock-in and clock-out, then take off the unpaid break. A 30-minute lunch reduces an 8.5-hour span to 8 paid hours.
How do I convert worked hours to decimal for pay?
Divide the minutes by 60 and add to the hours — 8 hours 15 minutes is 8.25 — then multiply by your hourly rate.
How do I total my weekly hours?
Add the worked hours from each day. Hours over your standard week may be overtime.
Are breaks paid or unpaid?
It depends on your employer and local law. Unpaid breaks are subtracted from worked hours; paid breaks are not.
Work Hours Calculator
This calculator totals the hours you have worked from your clock-in and clock-out times, minus any unpaid breaks — a quick timesheet for pay or records.
How work hours are calculated
Worked hours = end time − start time − unpaid breaks. From 9:00 to 17:30 with a 30-minute lunch is 8 hours 30 minutes minus 30 minutes = 8 hours.
Decimal hours for payroll
Most pay systems use decimal hours: convert minutes by dividing by 60. 8 hours 15 minutes becomes 8.25 hours, then multiply by the hourly rate for gross pay.
Weekly totals and overtime
Add each day’s worked hours for a weekly total. Hours above your standard week may count as overtime, often at a higher rate — check your contract or local rules.
