IN SHORT

To total a time card, subtract each day's start time from its end time, take out unpaid breaks and add the days up. Divide minutes by 60 for decimal hours: 7 hours 45 minutes is 7.75. Under the US federal rule, non-exempt employees earn 1.5 times their rate for hours over 40 in a week. The calculator handles overnight shifts and runs in your browser.

Questions

How do I convert minutes to decimal hours?
Divide the minutes by 60. 15 minutes is 0.25, 30 minutes is 0.5, 45 minutes is 0.75 and 20 minutes is about 0.33. So 7:20 on a time card is 7.33 decimal hours.
How is overtime calculated?
Under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, non-exempt employees get at least 1.5 times their regular rate for every hour over 40 in a workweek. Some states, such as California, also count daily overtime, so check your state's rules.
What if a shift ends after midnight?
Enter the real end time, for example 22:00 to 06:00. When the end time is earlier than the start, the calculator counts it as an overnight shift of 8 hours.
Should breaks count as hours worked?
Under federal rules, short breaks of 5 to 20 minutes are paid time, while bona fide meal breaks of 30 minutes or more, where you're fully relieved of duty, usually aren't. Enter only the unpaid break.
