Formula Used

The calculation is performed using this formula:

Formula

Total Working Hours = (End Time - Start Time) - (Lunch Duration + Total Breaks)

Where:

  • End Time and Start Time are in 24-hour format
  • Lunch Duration is in hours and minutes
  • Total Breaks is the sum of all break durations

Worked Example

Let's say you worked from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM with a 1-hour lunch break and two 15-minute breaks:

Start Time 9:00 AM
End Time 5:00 PM
Lunch Duration 1 hour
Total Breaks 30 minutes
Total Working Hours 6 hours

Calculation: (17:00 - 09:00) - (1:00 + 0:30) = 8:00 - 1:30 = 6:30 hours
