How the Calculation Works

The calculation is straightforward. The formula used is:

Formula

This formula subtracts the duration of your unpaid break from your total hours worked to give you the accurate hours you should be paid for.

Worked Example

Let's say you worked a total of 8 hours today, but you took a 30-minute unpaid break. Here's how the calculation works:

Example Calculation

Total Hours Worked After Break = 8 hours - 0.5 hours (30 minutes)

= 7.5 hours

So, you should be paid for 7.5 hours of work.
