Times use a 24-hour clock. Enter an hourly rate to see gross weekly pay (pre-tax).

How to add up a weekly timesheet

For each day, subtract the start time from the end time and take off the unpaid break. Add every day together for the weekly total:

Weekly hours = Σ (daily out − daily in − break)

Example. Five days of 9:00 AM–5:00 PM with a 30-minute lunch is 7.5 hours a day, or 37.5 hours for the week. At $20/hour that is $750 gross.

Why you can't just add the decimals

A common timesheet error is adding times like 8:30 + 8:45 as if they were decimals. Because an hour has 60 minutes (not 100), 8:30 + 8:45 is 17 hours 15 minutes — not 17.75. This calculator converts every entry to minutes first, so the weekly total and decimal hours are always correct for payroll.

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate my weekly timesheet hours?

Enter your clock-in and clock-out time for each day, subtract any unpaid break, and add up every day. This calculator totals your week automatically in both hours-and-minutes and decimal hours.

How do I add up hours and minutes on a timesheet?

Convert each day to minutes, sum them, then convert back to hours and minutes. Adding decimals directly (like 8.30 + 8.45) is a common mistake because 60 minutes make an hour, not 100. The calculator handles the conversion for you.

What is the difference between this and the Time Card Calculator?

The timesheet is a quick weekly grid for logging your days and getting a total. The Time Card Calculator adds daily and weekly overtime rules, print/PDF and saved state. Use whichever fits your workflow.

Does it handle overnight shifts?

Yes. If your out time is earlier than your in time, the calculator assumes the shift crosses midnight — for example 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM counts as 8 hours.

How do I calculate pay from my timesheet?

Enter your hourly rate and the calculator multiplies it by your total decimal hours to show gross weekly pay before tax.

How many hours is a full-time work week?

A standard full-time week is 40 hours. Anything over 40 hours in a week is typically overtime under US federal rules — use the Overtime Calculator to work out time-and-a-half pay.
