Work Hours & Time Card
Track daily hours worked and compute weekly pay
About this calculator
The Work Hours & Time Card Calculator totals up to seven daily shifts from HH:MM start and end times, subtracting unpaid breaks in minutes. Shifts that cross midnight are handled automatically, and blank days are skipped. It reports total, regular, and overtime hours against a weekly threshold (default 40 h), and computes gross pay with overtime at 1.5× the hourly rate. Invalid time entries return a clear error.
