Formula Used
The calculator uses these formulas to determine hours worked and overtime:
Regular Hours: Hours worked between start time and end time that fall within standard work hours (typically 8 hours per day)
Overtime Hours: Hours worked beyond standard work hours
Total Hours: Regular Hours + Overtime Hours
Total Pay: (Regular Hours × Regular Rate) + (Overtime Hours × Overtime Rate)
Note: The calculator assumes standard 8-hour workdays and 1.5× overtime pay by default. You can adjust these settings in the calculator.
Worked Example
Let's calculate a time card for an employee who worked from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM with a 1-hour lunch break, and then worked an additional 2 hours of overtime.
| Period | Start Time | End Time | Hours |
|---|---|---|---|
| Morning Shift | 8:00 AM | 12:00 PM | 4 hours |
| Afternoon Shift | 1:00 PM | 5:00 PM | 4 hours |
| Overtime | 5:00 PM | 7:00 PM | 2 hours |
Total Regular Hours: 8 hours
Total Overtime Hours: 2 hours
Total Hours Worked: 10 hours
If the employee earns $15/hour regular pay and $22.50/hour overtime pay, their total pay would be:
Total Pay = (8 × $15) + (2 × $22.50) = $120 + $45 = $165
