How do I calculate work hours with breaks?

Start with the total time between clock in and clock out, then subtract unpaid break minutes. The remaining time is the actual worked time that should be counted for payroll or timesheets.

How do I convert time card hours to decimals?

Take the final worked time, convert it into total minutes, and divide that number by 60. For example, 8 hours and 30 minutes becomes 510 minutes, and 510 ÷ 60 equals 8.50 decimal hours.

Can I use this time card calculator for payroll?
