Weekly mode totals one 7-day workweek. Switch to biweekly when you need a two-week time card with separate week-by-week overtime handling.

Why this page is ranking for time clock, work hours, and biweekly queries

Searchers landing here are often trying to do one of three jobs quickly: add up work hours, convert a time card into gross pay, or build a biweekly payroll summary that catches overtime correctly. The calculator above is built around those exact tasks instead of only showing a generic hours-between-times widget.

Weekly and biweekly time cards

Use weekly mode when you want one 7-day time card. Switch to biweekly mode when payroll runs every two weeks or when you need to compare week one and week two separately. The summary keeps weekly overtime isolated by week so the math stays aligned with common payroll workflows.

Add work hours and minutes without doing the math by hand

Many searches around this topic are really “add up my work hours” searches. Each day supports multiple rows, so you can log a morning shift, a second shift, or an overnight punch and let the calculator total the minutes for you. Lunch deductions can be set once as a default and adjusted per row when needed.

Time card gross pay and overtime

Gross pay is calculated from regular hours, overtime hours, your hourly rate, and the overtime multiplier you choose. Daily overtime helps if you work long single-day shifts. Weekly overtime is better for standard 40-hour workweek checks and most federal payroll comparisons.

Printable summary for payroll review

After you calculate, use the print button to save the result as a PDF or review it with payroll. That makes the page useful for both employees checking a paycheck and employers verifying a manual time sheet before submission.

Methodology, Assumptions, and Limitations

About this page: this calculator is designed for fast educational estimates of work hours, overtime, and gross pay. Results depend on the times, break deductions, rate, and overtime method you enter.

Assumptions: weekly overtime uses a 40-hour weekly threshold, daily overtime uses an 8-hour daily threshold, and gross pay uses the overtime multiplier shown in the calculator. Local wage rules, double-time rules, rounding policies, union contracts, and payroll software settings may produce different results.

Worked example: if one week totals 46 hours at $20 per hour with 1.5x overtime, the first 40 hours count as regular pay and the remaining 6 hours are multiplied by the overtime rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this as a biweekly time card calculator?
Yes. Biweekly mode opens a full 14-day time card and totals each week separately before combining the pay-period result.
Does the calculator handle overnight or split shifts?
Yes. Add as many rows as you need for a day. If the clock-out time is earlier than the clock-in time, the calculator treats it as an overnight shift crossing midnight.
How does weekly overtime work on a two-week card?
When weekly overtime is selected, week one and week two are evaluated separately so hours over 40 in one week do not spill into the other week.
Should I deduct lunch breaks from total hours?
Unpaid meal breaks should usually be deducted from hours worked. Paid short breaks are often included, but employer policy and state law can differ.
Can I print or save the completed time card?
Yes. Use the print button after calculating to create a PDF or review the summary before sending it to payroll.
How do I calculate gross pay from a time card?
Gross pay equals regular hours times hourly rate plus overtime hours times hourly rate times the overtime multiplier. The calculator does that automatically once your hours are entered.
