Time Card / Hours Worked

Total hours between clock in and out (minus break).

How this calculator works

Calculates hours worked between clock-in and clock-out (crossing midnight if needed), subtracts unpaid break minutes, and multiplies by hourly rate for total pay.

Useful for freelancers, contractors, or checking your paycheck against your timesheet.

Unpaid break time is subtracted before the pay calculation, not after — this matters for shifts with multiple short breaks, since even a few minutes here and there can add up to a meaningful difference in a week's total pay.

Example

09:00–17:30 with 30 min break at $20/hr: 8.00 hours worked, $160.00 pay.

Frequently asked questions

Does it handle overnight shifts?

Yes — enter a clock-out earlier than clock-in and it counts the crossing-midnight hours.

What about overtime multipliers?

This uses a flat rate. For 1.5× overtime, use the Employee Overtime tool.

Should paid breaks be entered as break minutes?

No — only enter unpaid break time here. Paid breaks are already included in your clock-in to clock-out span and shouldn't be subtracted.
