Track your weekly work hours. Enter clock-in and clock-out times for each day to calculate total hours and pay.

Tracking and calculating employee work hours accurately is vital for payroll processing, compliance with labor laws, and project budgeting. A timesheet calculator automates this calculation, preventing manual arithmetic errors and streamlining employee payment operations.
Follow these simple instructions to calculate your weekly hours and estimated gross pay:
Payroll systems process hours in decimal form rather than hours and minutes. For instance:
To convert minutes to decimal hours manually, divide the number of minutes by 60. For example: 45 minutes / 60 = 0.75 hours.
If you ever need to double-check your pay stub manually, use the following formulas:
Daily Hours = (Clock Out - Clock In) - Break TimeGross pay is the total amount of money an employee earns before any deductions or taxes are taken out. Net pay (often called "take-home pay") is the final amount an employee receives after federal, state, and local taxes, Social Security, healthcare premiums, and retirement contributions are deducted.
Under US federal law (FLSA), short breaks of 5 to 20 minutes must be counted as paid hours. However, longer meal periods (typically 30 minutes or more) are considered unpaid breaks, provided the employee is completely relieved from duty during that time.
In many jurisdictions, hours worked over 40 in a single workweek are classified as overtime and are paid at 1.5 times the regular hourly rate ("time and a half"). Some regions (like California) also require overtime pay for working more than 8 hours in a single day.
