Weekly Hours Calculator
A timesheet is seven numbers that have to be added correctly and compared with a standard week. This calculator does both. Enter the hours you worked each day, your standard weekly hours, your hourly rate and the overtime multiplier your contract uses, and it returns the total, the overtime portion and the pay.
Use decimal hours for each day: 7 h 30 min is 7.5. If you have start and end times instead, the hours calculator turns them into decimal hours first.
Formula
- total hours = Mon + Tue + Wed + Thu + Fri + Sat + Sun
- overtime hours = max(0, total hours − standard weekly hours)
- regular pay = (total hours − overtime hours) × hourly rate
- overtime pay = overtime hours × hourly rate × multiplier
- total pay = regular pay + overtime pay
Example: 8 + 8 + 8.5 + 9 + 8 + 4 + 0 = 45.5 hours. With a 40-hour week, overtime is 5.5 hours. At $20 an hour and a 1.5× multiplier: regular pay 40 × 20 = $800, overtime 5.5 × 20 × 1.5 = class="jsx-43013d48d08af43a site-content "65, total $965.
How to use
- Enter the hours for each day. Type 0 for days off.
- Enter your standard weekly hours. 40 is common; some contracts use 37.5, 38 or 45.
- Enter your hourly rate and the overtime multiplier. Enter 1 if overtime is paid at the normal rate, 1.5 for time and a half, 2 for double time.
- Read the totals. The h:mm line is the same total expressed in hours and minutes.
