How to Use This Calculator

This calculator helps you create a weekly time card that includes your work hours and lunch breaks. Follow these steps:

  1. Enter your daily work hours for each day of the week
  2. Select your lunch break duration (default is 30 minutes)
  3. Click "Calculate" to see your weekly totals
  4. Print your time card when ready

Note: This calculator assumes standard 5-day work weeks. For different work patterns, adjust the inputs accordingly.

Formula Used

The calculator sums your daily work hours and adds the lunch breaks to create your weekly totals. The formula is:

Weekly Work Hours = Sum of Daily Hours
Weekly Lunch Breaks = Number of Days × Lunch Duration
Total Weekly Hours = Weekly Work Hours + Weekly Lunch Breaks

For example, if you work 8 hours each day Monday through Friday with 30-minute lunch breaks:

Day Work Hours Lunch Break
Monday 8 0.5
Tuesday 8 0.5
Wednesday 8 0.5
Thursday 8 0.5
Friday 8 0.5
Total 40 2.5

Worked Example

Let's calculate a weekly time card for an employee who works:

  • 8 hours Monday through Friday
  • 30-minute lunch breaks each day

Using the formula:

Weekly Work Hours = 8 × 5 = 40 hours
Weekly Lunch Breaks = 5 × 0.5 = 2.5 hours
Total Weekly Hours = 40 + 2.5 = 42.5 hours

This employee would have 40 hours of work and 2.5 hours of lunch breaks for a total of 42.5 hours in a week.

Printing Your Time Card

Once you've calculated your weekly hours, you can print your time card for payroll submission or personal records. The printable version includes:

  • Your daily work hours
  • Lunch break totals
  • Weekly summary
  • Date range for the week

Tip: For best results, print in landscape orientation and use standard paper size (8.5" x 11").
