Tips for Accurate Time Cards
Record times dailyDon’t rely on memory at the end of the week — small errors add up.
Note unpaid breaksOnly subtract breaks that are unpaid according to your company policy.
Watch overnight shiftsIf a shift crosses midnight, the end time will be earlier than the start time — the calculator handles this.
Keep a backupSave or screenshot your completed time card for your records.
How the Calculation Works
For each day the calculator converts start and end times into minutes, subtracts any unpaid break, and handles shifts that cross midnight. All daily totals are then added together for the weekly result.
Daily Hours Formula
Daily Minutes = (End Time − Start Time) − Break Minutes
(If overnight: add 24 hours before subtracting)
Time Card Calculator FAQ
Can I use this for bi-weekly pay periods?
This version is built for a standard 7-day week. For bi-weekly totals, run the calculator twice (once for each week) and add the results.
Does it handle overnight shifts?
Yes. If the end time is earlier than the start time, the calculator automatically treats it as an overnight shift.
Should I include paid breaks?
No. Only enter unpaid breaks. Paid breaks are usually counted as worked time.
Is the decimal hours useful?
Yes. Many payroll systems and timesheets prefer decimal hours (for example 8.5 instead of 8 hours 30 minutes).
Can supervisors use this for multiple employees?
Absolutely. Run the calculator once per employee and record the weekly totals.
