Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate hours worked?

Enter a start time and an end time and the tool returns the elapsed hours and minutes, which you can reduce by any break time.

Does it handle shifts that cross midnight?

Yes. If the end time is earlier in the clock than the start time, it assumes the shift ran overnight and counts the hours correctly.

How do I subtract a lunch break?

Enter the break length in minutes and the tool deducts it from the total, giving the net paid hours for a timesheet.

How do I convert minutes to decimal hours?

Divide the minutes by 60, so 30 minutes is 0.5 hours and 15 minutes is 0.25 hours, which the tool can show for payroll.

Can I use it for a timesheet?

Yes. It is designed for timesheets, giving you the worked hours and minutes between clock in and clock out with breaks removed.

What time format does it accept?

You enter a start and end time using the time fields, and the calculator handles both morning and afternoon times.

Is my time data private?

Yes. The calculation runs in your browser and the times you enter are never uploaded or saved.
