Timesheet Calculator

Pick your clock-in and clock-out times, then add your unpaid break in minutes (a standard lunch is 30 or 60), then the number of days you work that same shift each week. The timesheet calculator instantly returns your total weekly hours. Want pay too? Open More options and type your hourly rate — it will apply overtime at 1.5x for anything over 40 hours a week.

A timesheet turns raw clock-in and clock-out times into paid hours. First it finds the gross span of each shift (clock-out minus clock-in). Then it subtracts any unpaid break, because lunch is not paid time in most US hourly jobs. That gives you net paid hours per day. Multiply by the number of days you work the shift and you have your weekly total. Under the FLSA, most non-exempt US employees earn overtime — usually 1.5x — for hours beyond 40 in a workweek, which is why this calculator splits the total into regular and overtime buckets before working out pay.

Daily paid hours = (Clock-out − Clock-in) − (Break minutes ÷ 60)

Weekly hours = Daily paid hours × Days worked

Pay = (Regular hours × Rate) + (Overtime hours × Rate × 1.5)

Example: a 9-to-17 shift is 8 gross hours. Take off a 30-minute lunch and you have 7.5 paid hours per day. Across 5 days that is 37.5 hours — under 40, so no overtime is due.

How many hours is 9 to 5 with a 30-minute lunch? 8 gross hours − 0.5 = 7.5 paid hours a day, or 37.5 hours across a 5-day week.

How do I calculate a 40-hour timesheet with pay at $22/hour? Eight 8.5-hour shifts... no — work 8am to 4:30pm (8.5 gross), take a 30-min lunch for 8 net hours × 5 days = 40 hours × $22 = $880.

What if I work six 9-hour days? 9 gross − 1h lunch = 8 paid hours × 6 = 48 hours. The first 40 are regular; the extra 8 hours are overtime, paid at 1.5x.

- Only deduct breaks that are unpaid. Short paid rest breaks stay in your total.
- For a night shift that ends after midnight (set a clock-out time earlier than your clock-in), the calculator rolls the end time to the next day automatically.
- Overtime in the US is generally figured weekly (over 40 hours), not daily — but check your state; a few use daily overtime rules.
