Shift on 2026-10-17: Elapsed gross time was 8.00 hrs. After deducting 0 mins of unpaid break, total net time is 8.00 decimal hours.
Time Card Hours Worked Formula
How this mathematical and clinical model is calculated
Net Work Hours = (Clock Out 1 - Clock In 1) + (Clock Out 2 - Clock In 2) - Unpaid BreaksElapsed gross time is calculated by determining the difference in minutes between clock-in and clock-out timestamps. If a shift crosses midnight, 24 hours (1,440 minutes) is automatically added to the clock-out timestamp. Total unpaid break minutes are deducted, and the remaining net minutes are converted to hours, minutes, and decimal hours (Minutes ÷ 60).
Step-by-Step Calculation Process:
Record the exact morning clock-in and clock-out times.
Enter any unpaid morning or lunch break duration in minutes.
If working a split shift or second shift, enter the afternoon clock-in and clock-out times.
Deduct all unpaid meal intervals from the combined gross elapsed duration.
Convert net minutes to decimal hours by dividing minutes by 60 and rounding to two decimal places.

To calculate decimal hours, take the total number of minutes worked, divide by 60, and add the result to the full hours. For example, 7 hours and 30 minutes equals 7 + (30 ÷ 60) = 7.50 decimal hours. 15 minutes is 0.25, 45 minutes is 0.75.
