A 9:00 to 5:30 day with a 30 minute lunch is 8 hours, so five of them make a 40 hour week.
How the time card calculator works
For each day TimesheetCalc subtracts the clock-in time from the clock-out time, adding 24 hours when the shift ends after midnight, then takes off the unpaid break in minutes. If rounding is on, each punch is first rounded to the nearest 5, 6 or 15 minutes. Daily totals add up to the week, shown in hours and minutes and in decimal hours (minutes ÷ 60) to two places. With weekly overtime, hours over 40 are overtime. With daily overtime, hours over 8 in each day are overtime, and any regular hours left over 40 in the week are added, so no hour is counted twice. Gross pay is regular hours × rate plus overtime hours × rate × the multiplier, before taxes and deductions.
