Time Card Calculator

For each working day, subtract the start time from the end time, then deduct any unpaid break minutes. Add up the worked hours for all days to get the weekly total. Example: 9:00–17:30 with a 30-minute break = 8 hours. Five such days = 40 hours per week. Use the calculator above to enter each day and get the weekly total instantly.

Unpaid break minutes are subtracted from each day's gross shift time. A 9:00–17:30 shift is 8h 30m. Subtract a 30-minute unpaid break and the paid hours are 8h 00m. If breaks are paid (no deduction), enter 0 in the break field for those days.

Overtime is any time worked beyond the daily threshold you set. With an 8-hour threshold, a 10-hour day = 8 regular hours + 2 overtime hours. Overtime pay = overtime hours × hourly rate × overtime multiplier. A common multiplier is 1.5 (time and a half). The calculator applies the threshold per day, not per week.

Decimal hours express time as a single number rather than hours and minutes. 8 hours 30 minutes = 8.5 decimal hours. 7 hours 45 minutes = 7.75. Payroll systems, invoicing software and spreadsheets use decimal hours because they are easier to multiply by an hourly rate. The calculator shows both formats for every day and the weekly total.

Yes. Enter your hours for each day, set your billing rate in the hourly rate field, and set the overtime threshold to 24 so no overtime is triggered. The copy function produces a clean weekly summary you can paste into an invoice, email or timesheet portal.

No. This calculator shows gross pay only — the total before income tax, national insurance/social security, pension contributions and other statutory deductions. Those vary by country and personal circumstances. Use the gross pay figure as input into your payroll software or pass it to your accountant.
