Work Hours Calculator

Calculate working time between two times after subtracting breaks.

Calculations happen locally. We do not send your values to our server.

Example

From 9:00 to 17:30 with a 30-minute break equals 8 working hours.

Calculation method

The tool calculates the clock-time duration, treats an earlier end as the next day, then subtracts the break.

Important notes

It does not apply overtime, payroll rounding, labor rules, or unpaid-break regulations.

Frequently asked questions

Can it calculate an overnight shift?

Yes. An end time earlier than the start is treated as the next day.

Can the break exceed the shift?

No. That input is rejected.

Is this a payroll record?

No. It is an estimate; use your employer’s official timekeeping rules.
