Hours Calculator
The Hours Calculator totals the hours worked between a start and end time, automatically subtracting any unpaid break and handling overnight shifts.

How total hours are calculated
Worked Minutes = (End Time − Start Time) − Break Minutes
If the end time is earlier than the start time (an overnight shift), 24 hours is added automatically before subtracting the break.
Example: Clocking in at 9:00 AM and out at 5:30 PM with a 30-minute unpaid lunch break totals 8 hours worked (8.0 decimal hours).
Payroll uses
Decimal hours are handy for payroll systems that calculate pay as rate × decimal hours. Combine with the Salary Calculator to convert worked hours into pay.
