Hours Calculator

Calculate time worked, subtract a break, and estimate gross pay.

Hours worked

Estimated gross pay is before taxes, deductions, and overtime adjustments.

How to calculate hours worked

Enter clock-in and clock-out times, then enter any unpaid break. If the clock-out time is earlier, the calculator treats it as an overnight shift ending the next day.

Calculate pay from hours

Enter an optional hourly rate to estimate gross pay. Worked minutes are divided by 60 to produce decimal hours, then multiplied by the rate.
