Hours calculator

Clock in, clock out, and any unpaid break — your hours and pay, counted in front of you. Overnight shifts handled.

8.00 hours (8:00)

Whole week of shifts, or overtime past 40 hours? Use the time card calculator.

40 hours

The federal overtime line: past 40 in a workweek, non-exempt hourly work pays more.

1.5×

Time and a half — the federal overtime multiplier. Some states go further; your pay stub is the authority.

7:38 → 7.63

Payroll writes minutes as decimals — 38 minutes is 0.63 of an hour. The converter has the full chart.

Overtime basics: US Department of Labor, Fair Labor Standards Act. Rules vary by state and contract.

All the calculators

What's the catch?

There isn't one. Every calculator here is free, there's no signup, and nothing you type leaves your browser — the math runs on your device. No ads, and your numbers are never stored or sold. The site is run by one independent builder whose paid products cover the bills.

One habit worth keeping: if a number here ever disagrees with your pay stub, trust the stub — then ask payroll to walk you through it. The formula on each page gives you the exact question to ask.

How this is calculated

Hours = clock-out − clock-in − unpaid break minutes. If clock-out is earlier than clock-in, the shift is treated as crossing midnight and 24 hours are added first. Pay = hours × rate.

The result shows decimal hours (8.50) and hours:minutes (8:30) because pay stubs use the first and schedules use the second.

Common questions

Is anything I type saved or sent anywhere?

No. The math runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you enter is sent to us or stored.

How do decimal hours work?

Payroll uses decimal hours: 8 hours 30 minutes is 8.50, because 30 minutes is half an hour. The calculator shows both formats so you can check either against your pay stub.

What about overtime?

Overtime is figured per workweek, not per shift, so it lives in the time card calculator — enter your week there and hours past 40 are split out at 1.5× automatically.
