Worked Example
Let's calculate work hours for an employee who:
- Started work at 8:00 AM
- Finished work at 5:00 PM
- Took a 1-hour lunch break
Total Work Hours = (5:00 PM - 8:00 AM) - 1 hour
= 9 hours - 1 hour
= 8 hours
This employee worked a total of 8 hours after accounting for their lunch break.
