Hourly workers, freelancers and small business owners need accurate hours for payroll and invoices. Enter each day's start and end time and any unpaid break; the calculator handles AM/PM and overnight shifts.
Daily hours = end − start − break. Weekly hours are the sum. Under the U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act, non-exempt employees earn 1.5 times their regular rate for hours over 40 in a workweek; some states also have daily overtime rules.
Worked example (defaults): 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM with a 30-minute break is 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week, $800 at $20 an hour.
Payroll often uses decimal hours: 7 hours 45 minutes is 7.75 hours. Divide minutes by 60 to convert.
How do I enter an overnight shift? Just enter the end time; if it is earlier than the start, the calculator assumes it is the next day.
Are breaks paid? Short breaks (under 20 minutes) usually are; meal breaks usually are not.
Can I use 24-hour time? Yes, e.g. 17:00.
