Enter your start and end times each day. Get your total hours worked, overtime, and weekly pay — free, instant, and works for any country or currency.
Enter your daily punch times on the left and click Calculate to see your hours and pay breakdown.
A time card — also called a timesheet or punch card — is a simple record of when you start and finish work each day. It is used all over the world to track hours worked and calculate pay correctly.
The idea is the same everywhere: write down your start time, end time, and any unpaid break for each day. Add it all up to get your total hours for the week.
This calculator does all the math for you. Enter your times, add your hourly rate if you want a pay estimate, and hit Calculate. It works for any country, any currency, and any shift pattern — including overnight shifts and split workweeks.
The calculation works the same way everywhere:
Example: You work 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM (9.5 hours). You take a 30-minute unpaid lunch. Net hours = 9.0. Five days = 45.0 hours total. If your overtime starts after 40 hours, you have 40 regular hours and 5 overtime hours. If your country uses a different threshold — such as 38 hrs (Australia) or 48 hrs (India, UK max) — just update the OT Threshold field.

Many employers round punch times to the nearest 15 minutes for payroll. The rule must be fair — it cannot always round in the employer's favour. Most countries allow this practice when applied consistently.
Use the rounding option in Advanced Options to match how your employer or payroll system calculates your hours.
How many hours you work in a week based on your daily schedule and number of days worked. Includes 30-minute unpaid break deduction.
| Shift Length(gross hrs/day) | 4 Days | 5 Days | 6 Days | 7 Days | Net hrs/day(minus 30 min break) |

Net hours subtract a standard 30-minute unpaid break. Adjust the break field in the calculator for your actual break time. Cells highlighted in green may trigger overtime at a 40-hour weekly threshold. Your country may use a different threshold — adjust the OT Threshold field in the calculator.
Regular and overtime gross pay estimates for common hourly rates and total hours worked (1.5× OT rate after 40 hrs).
| Hourly Rate | 35 hrs(no OT) | 40 hrs(no OT) | 45 hrs(+5 OT hrs) | 50 hrs(+10 OT hrs) | 55 hrs(+15 OT hrs) | 60 hrs(+20 OT hrs) |

OT pay uses 1.5× multiplier. All figures are gross (before tax). OT rates vary by country — India uses 2×, Philippines 1.25×, France 1.25–1.5×. Symbol shown is $.
See how different break lengths reduce your paid hours at common shift lengths.
| Shift (gross) | No Break | 15 min break | 30 min break | 45 min break | 60 min break | 90 min break |
|---|
Only unpaid breaks reduce your net hours. Paid rest periods — common in Australia, UK, and many other countries — do not reduce your paid hours and should not be entered in the break field.
