Calculate total hours worked, overtime, and pay for a 7-day work week. This calculator helps you track your work hours, identify overtime, and determine your total pay based on your hourly rate and overtime rules.
How to Use This Calculator
Using the time card calculator is simple:
- Enter your hourly pay rate in the "Hourly Rate" field.
- For each day of the week, enter the hours worked in the corresponding field.
- Select whether you want to calculate overtime based on standard 40-hour workweek rules or custom rules.
- Click "Calculate" to see your total hours, overtime hours, and total pay.
- Review the results and chart showing your daily hours.
The calculator will automatically sum your daily hours, identify any overtime, and calculate your total pay based on your inputs.
Formula Used
The calculator uses the following formulas:
Total Hours Worked: Sum of all daily hours entered.
Overtime Hours: Total hours worked minus 40 (standard workweek) if overtime is enabled.
Regular Pay: (Total hours - Overtime hours) × Hourly rate
Overtime Pay: Overtime hours × (Hourly rate × 1.5) if overtime is enabled
Total Pay: Regular pay + Overtime pay
These formulas provide a clear breakdown of your earnings based on standard overtime rules.
Worked Example
Let's look at an example to understand how the calculator works.
Suppose you work the following hours in a week:
- Monday: 8 hours
- Tuesday: 8 hours
- Wednesday: 8 hours
- Thursday: 8 hours
- Friday: 8 hours
- Saturday: 0 hours
- Sunday: 0 hours
With an hourly rate of $15 and overtime enabled:
- Total hours: 40
- Overtime hours: 0
- Regular pay: $600
- Overtime pay: $0
- Total pay: $600
If you worked 50 hours instead (adding 10 hours on Saturday), the calculation would be:
- Total hours: 50
- Overtime hours: 10
- Regular pay: $450
- Overtime pay: $150
- Total pay: $600
This example shows how the calculator helps you track your earnings and identify overtime.
