Formula Used

The calculation is straightforward:

Net Hours Worked = Total Scheduled Hours - (Total Break Minutes / 60)

  • Total Break Minutes is the sum of all break durations

The result is your actual working time after accounting for breaks.

Worked Example

Let's say you have an 8-hour workday with 3 breaks totaling 60 minutes:

Total Scheduled Hours: 8 hours

Total Break Minutes: 60 minutes

Net Hours Worked: 7 hours

Percentage Working: 87.5%

This means you worked 7 hours out of your 8-hour shift, with 1 hour spent on breaks.
