Enter your clock-in and clock-out times and any unpaid break to calculate total hours worked.
Time Card Calculator (Work Hours)
Calculate total hours worked from clock-in and clock-out times, minus any unpaid break.
This is a mathematical calculation for general informational purposes only, not payroll or legal advice. Hours entered use a 24-hour (0-23) format, and an overnight shift (clock-out earlier than clock-in) is treated as crossing midnight.
A time card calculation subtracts your clock-in time from your clock-out time, then removes any unpaid break, to find total hours worked — commonly needed for payroll, timesheets and freelance billing. This calculator also handles overnight shifts that cross midnight.
Example
- With the default values shown above, this calculator returns: Total Minutes Worked ≈ 480; Total Hours Worked ≈ 8.00.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I enter times after noon?
Use 24-hour format — for example, 5:30 PM is clock-out hour 17, minute 30.
Does this handle overnight shifts?
Yes — if the clock-out time is earlier than the clock-in time, the calculator assumes the shift crossed midnight and adds a full day before subtracting.
