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.
