How do I calculate time card hours?
To calculate time card hours, subtract each day’s start time from its end time, take out any unpaid break, then add the days together for your weekly total. Convert minutes to a decimal (divide by 60) if you need hours for payroll.
For example, 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM is 8 hours 30 minutes; minus a 30-minute lunch leaves 8 hours (8.00). Do that for each day and sum the results.
