Worked Example

Let's look at an example to see how the calculator works.

Scenario

Hourly Wage: $15.00
Shift Date: January 15, 2023
Start Time: 8:00 AM
End Time: 5:00 PM
Break Duration: 30 minutes

Calculation

Total Shift Duration: 5:00 PM - 8:00 AM = 9 hours
Total Hours Worked: 9 hours - 0.5 hours (30 minutes) = 8.5 hours
