Timesheet Calculator

For each day you enter a start time, end time, and any unpaid break minutes. The calculator subtracts the break from the total span between start and end to get net hours worked. It then sums all days and applies your hourly rate — splitting hours into regular and overtime buckets based on your weekly threshold.

Overtime is triggered when your total weekly hours exceed the threshold you set (default is 40 hours, per the US Fair Labor Standards Act). Hours above that threshold are multiplied by your chosen overtime rate — commonly 1.5× (time and a half). Hours at or below the threshold are paid at your standard rate.

Yes. Simply leave any days you didn't work blank — the calculator skips days with no start or end time. You only need to fill in the days you actually worked.

Enter your unpaid break duration in minutes in the Break field for each day. For example, a 30-minute lunch break = 30. The calculator deducts this from your gross shift time to give you net paid hours.

The calculator assumes all shifts occur within a single calendar day (end time is after start time). For overnight shifts, a common workaround is to split the shift into two entries across two days or manually calculate the span and enter hours directly.

Decimal hours express time as a single number — for example, 7 hours 30 minutes = 7.5 hours. The hh:mm format shows the same as 7:30. Payroll systems often require decimal hours for calculations, which is why this calculator displays both.

This tool gives a strong estimate of gross pay based on the hours and rate you enter. However, it does not account for taxes, deductions, benefits, or jurisdiction-specific labour rules. Always verify results with a qualified payroll system or accountant before processing official payroll.

The time inputs accept 24-hour format natively — just enter times like 08:00 for 8 AM and 17:30 for 5:30 PM. No conversion is needed; the calculator handles both 12-hour and 24-hour entries correctly.
