Hours worked calculator — total weekly hours
Last checked against official sources: (ecfr.gov; ecfr.gov)
Add up net hours from daily clock times and breaks. Optional hourly rate shows a rough gross estimate—your data stays on this device.
Enter daily clock times and breaks in the table below. The guide under the calculator shows how weekly hours are totaled, with a worked example you can compare to your time sheet.

FAQ
- What happens if I leave a day blank?
- Blank clock-in and clock-out means that day was not worked. Partial entries (only in or only out) are ignored until both times are set.
- Are breaks paid or unpaid?
- The break field is unpaid time subtracted from the shift. Net hours never drop below zero for a day.
- How precise are decimal hours?
- Totals are rounded to two decimal places, which matches common payroll hour formats.
- How many hours is a 9 to 5 with a 30 minute lunch?
- Eight hours on the clock minus thirty unpaid minutes is 7.50 net hours for that day. Five such days total 37.50 hours for the week before overtime rules apply.
- Can I use this for part-time or variable schedules?
- Yes. Fill only the days you worked and leave other rows blank. Each day with both clock times counts toward the weekly total; partial rows are ignored until in and out are both set.
How this calculator works
An Hours Worked Calculator totals net time from daily clock entries when you care about hours first and pay second. HourPunch sums each day you worked into one weekly figure shown as decimal hours and as hours-and-minutes. You can still add an hourly rate to see a rough gross amount, but the page is built for the question “how many hours did I work?”
Enter clock-in and clock-out for each weekday you were on the job. Leave weekend rows empty if you were off. Unpaid breaks go in as minutes subtracted from the shift. Overnight work is handled when clock-out appears before clock-in on the same line. Partial rows with only one time do not count until both ends are set. Decimal totals round to two places, matching many payroll exports.
Interns, apprentices, and part-time staff often need weekly hour totals for school credit or client billing without running full payroll math. This page keeps the hour columns front and center while still letting you optionally multiply by a rate when you wonder what the week might pay. Because nothing syncs online, you can use a shared family computer and close the tab when you are done.
When your question spans only one shift—how long was Tuesday night?—the time between calculator is faster. If you know when you clocked in and still need to work a set number of hours, the clock-out time calculator gives the leave time after breaks. When you need overtime split for a whole week, the overtime calculator uses the same punch grid with different emphasis on REG versus OT lines. Pay stubs that list decimal hours pair well with the decimal to hours calculator. Always reconcile decimal totals with what appears on your employer portal before you dispute a check.
Volunteer coordinators and grant reports sometimes cap hours per week; this grid shows whether you are approaching a limit without building a spreadsheet. Remember that decimal hours at two places may differ by a hundredth from a portal that stores more precision internally.
Hours worked and hours worked per week
Hours worked means net time on the clock after unpaid breaks—not gross span from in to out. This page sums each day you enter into one hours worked per week total (decimal hours and hours-and-minutes). Short rest breaks of about five to twenty minutes are generally hours worked under federal rules (29 CFR 785.18)—do not subtract them; this page's break field is for unpaid time only. Bona fide unpaid meal periods when you are fully relieved of duty are generally not hours worked (29 CFR 785.19)—enter those minutes in the break column.
Worked example (part-time week): Tuesday and Thursday 1:00 PM–5:30 PM with no break → 4.50 hours each day → 9.00 hours for the week. Worked example (full-time week): five days at 9:00 AM–5:00 PM with 30 minutes unpaid lunch → 7.50 hours per day → 37.50 hours worked for the week (37h 30m).
| Input or result | Example |
|---|---|
| Tue / Thu shifts | 4.50 h + 4.50 h = 9.00 h/week |
| Mon–Fri 9–5, 30 min lunch | 37.50 h/week (37h 30m) |
| Optional gross @ $20 | $750.00 (37.50 × $20, no OT) |
Worked example
Imagine five standard days, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with thirty minutes off the clock for lunch each day. Gross time is eight hours, minus half an hour leaves seven and a half hours per day. Multiply by five days and you get thirty-seven and a half hours for the week, displayed as 37.50 decimal hours and as 37h 30m. If you optionally enter twenty dollars an hour and weekly overtime rules, gross estimates to seven hundred fifty dollars because no day pushes the week past forty hours.
| Input or result | Example |
|---|---|
| Days worked | Mon–Fri |
| In / out | 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM |
| Break | 30 min unpaid |
| Weekly total | 37.50 hrs (37h 30m) |
| Optional gross @ $20 | $750.00 |
Schedules with split shifts or paid breaks may differ from your employer’s system. Use these totals as estimates for checking a pay stub or signed time sheet, not payroll or tax advice. For punch-clock wording, see the time clock calculator.

People also ask
- What counts as hours worked on a time sheet?
- Generally clock-in to clock-out minus unpaid breaks only. Short rest breaks of about five to twenty minutes are generally hours worked under 29 CFR 785.18—leave the break field at zero for those so they stay in net hours. Unpaid meal periods when you are fully relieved of duty are generally not hours worked under 29 CFR 785.19—enter those minutes in the break field. Partial rows count only when both clock times are set; overnight shifts work when out is earlier than in on the same line.
- How many hours worked per week is full time?
- Full-time schedules vary by employer and contract—often around 40 hours, but not always. This tool totals whatever days you enter; compare your weekly total to HR policy or your offer letter, not a fixed label on this page.
- How do I calculate total hours worked in a week?
- Fill in clock-in and clock-out for each day you worked, enter unpaid break minutes, and the tool sums net time into one weekly total with decimal and hours-and-minutes views.
- What if I only worked Monday through Friday?
- Leave Saturday and Sunday blank. Partial rows with only one time are ignored until both in and out are set.
- How many hours is 37.5 on a time sheet?
- 37.5 decimal hours is thirty-seven hours and thirty minutes—the same total you get from five eight-hour shifts minus thirty-minute breaks each day.
