Payroll Hours Calculator

Total hours for a work week and split them into regular and overtime using a threshold (default 40 hours). Enter hours for each day, or use start time, end time, and break for a single shift.

How it works

In week mode, enter hours worked for each day (Monday through Sunday). The calculator sums them and applies your overtime threshold: regular hours up to the threshold, remainder as overtime.

In shift mode, enter clock-in and clock-out times plus unpaid break minutes for one shift. Overnight shifts are supported when the end time is earlier than the start time on the clock.

Examples

  • 42-hour week

    With a 40-hour threshold, 42 total hours → 40 regular and 2 overtime.

  • Nine-hour shift with lunch

    9:00–18:00 with a 60-minute unpaid break → 8.0 paid hours for that day.

FAQ

Can I enter more than 24 hours per day?
Each day accepts 0–24 hours in week mode. For unusual schedules, split across days or use shift mode per day.
Does this handle lunch breaks?
Shift mode subtracts break minutes you enter. In week mode, enter net hours after breaks manually.
How does this relate to overtime pay?
This tool counts hours only. Multiply regular and overtime hours by your rate in the Overtime Pay Calculator.
