Time Card Calculator

Enter several in and out punches and a break. The total comes back in hours, not pay.

Smart Tips

• Each row is one in and one out. Add a row for a second punch.

• Use 09:00 or 9:00 AM. Both are accepted.

• If out is earlier than in, that punch crosses midnight once.

• The break is subtracted once from the total, not once per punch.

• 00:00 to 00:00 is zero hours.

• There is no wage field on this page.

The Formula

hours = (sum of out − in, +24h if needed − break minutes) ÷ 60
