Formula Used
The biweekly time card calculator uses the following formulas:
Total Hours Worked:
Total Hours = (Daily Hours × Workdays per Week) × 2
This calculates your total hours worked over two weeks.

Total Breaks = (Break per Day × Workdays per Week) × 2
This calculates your total break time over two weeks.
Note: The calculator assumes a standard 2-week pay period. Adjust the workdays per week if your schedule varies.
Worked Example
Let's say you work 8 hours per day, 5 days a week, and take a 30-minute break each day. Here's how the calculation works:
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Daily Hours | 8 hours |
| Workdays per Week | 5 days |
| Break per Day | 30 minutes |
Calculations:
- Total Hours = (8 × 5) × 2 = 80 hours
- Total Breaks = (30 × 5) × 2 = 300 minutes (5 hours)
The calculator will display these results along with a chart showing your work schedule.
