How to Use the Tool

Using this Work Hours Calculator is as simple and convenient as any other time card calculator or work clock calculator.

Follow the steps below to effortlessly count your hours worked and track your earnings for the week or biweekly period:

1. Once you get to the tool, enter the Starting and Ending times for each workday.
2. If you took a break during your workday, input the duration in the provided fields. The calculator will automatically deduct it from your total hours.
3. Enter payment information, including base pay rate, overtime pay, and overtime rate, into the provided input fields.
4. Hit the Calculate button to see your total work hours and details about your total pay, like regular and overtime pay.

Click the Reset button to clear all entered information and begin a new timesheet.

For example, let’s say you work from 9:00 AM to 5:15 PM with a 45-minute lunch break from Monday to Friday this week. To find out how many hours you worked, enter these time values into the Work Hours Calculator; it’ll then automatically subtract the break and calculate the total work hours per day and per week, which would be 7:30 hours and 37:30 hours, respectively.

How to Calculate Hours Worked Manually

Calculating your total work hours manually is simple, though this method often takes time and, of course, effort. Here’s how:

1. Note down the start and end times of your workdays.
2. Calculate daily hours: Subtract the start time from the end time to determine the hours worked each day.
3. Subtract break time: Deduct the duration of any breaks taken during each workday, if applicable.
4. Add up the total hours worked for each day to get your weekly total.

That’s it!

For example, if you worked from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Monday with a 1-hour break, your total would be 7 hours. Repeat for each day and then sum the daily hours to get your weekly total, which could be 35 hours. For a Monday-through-Friday week with the same schedule, this would amount to 35 hours.

Tips to Use the Work Hours Calculator Effectively

This tool is designed for convenience and simplicity. However, you may still need to follow a few simple tips to get the most out of our Work Hours Calculator; let’s see:

What formats does the calculator support?
