How the time card total is worked out
For each day the tool takes end minus start, adds 24 hours if the end is earlier than the start (an overnight shift), and subtracts the unpaid break in minutes. The week total is the sum of the daily results. Decimal hours are minutes divided by 60.
Worked example. Monday 8:55 to 17:10 with a 30 minute break is 495 - 30 = 465 minutes, or 7:45 (7.75 h). Tuesday 9:03 to 17:32 with a 45 minute break is 509 - 45 = 464 minutes, or 7:44. With no rounding the week is 929 minutes: 15:29, which is 15.48 decimal hours. Rounding the start and end times to the nearest 15 minutes makes Monday 9:00 to 17:15 and Tuesday 9:00 to 17:30, so both days are 7:45 and the week is 15:30 (15.50 h). Rounding each day total to the nearest 15 minutes also gives 15:30 here.
Rounding choices. The tool offers rounding to 5, 6, 10, 15 or 30 minutes, applied either to each clock punch or to each day total, rounding halves up. Which method, if any, is allowed or used is set by your employer and your local law, and this page does not give wage or legal advice.
Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate hours worked with a lunch break?
Subtract the start from the end, then subtract the unpaid break. From 8:55 to 17:10 less 30 minutes is 7 hours 45 minutes.
How do I handle a shift that goes past midnight?
Enter the end time as normal. If it is earlier than the start, the tool treats it as the next day, so 22:00 to 06:00 with a 30 minute break is 7:30.
How do I convert my total to decimal hours for payroll?
Divide total minutes by 60. A total of 15:30 is 930 minutes, which is 15.50 hours.
Does this calculate pay or overtime?
No. It adds up time only. Pay rates, overtime and rounding rules depend on your employer and local law.
