What Is a Time Card Calculator?
A weekly time card calculator records daily employee working hours Monday through Sunday, deducts unpaid meal breaks, and computes cumulative weekly regular hours (up to 40) and overtime hours (over 40) at standard 1.5x time-and-a-half rates.
How to Use This Calculator
- Enter hourly base pay rate.
- Enter daily Clock In, Clock Out, and unpaid lunch break minutes for each day worked.
- Optionally click "Include Sat & Sun" if working weekend shifts.
- Review total decimal hours, regular hours, overtime hours, and gross pre-tax earnings.
Weekly Overtime Payroll Formula
H_{\text{reg}} = \min(H_{\text{total}}, 40) \quad ; \quad H_{\text{OT}} = \max(0, H_{\text{total}} - 40) \quad ; \quad \text{Gross} = (H_{\text{reg}} \cdot R) + (H_{\text{OT}} \cdot 1.5R)Under federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) regulations, non-exempt employees receive 1.5 times their regular hourly rate for all hours exceeding 40 in a single workweek.
Worked Example
Scenario: An employee works 8.5 hours Monday through Friday (42.5 total hours) at $22.50/hr.
Total hours: 5 days × 8.5 hours = 42.5 hours.
Regular hours: 40.0 hours. Overtime: 2.5 hours.
Regular pay: 40 × $22.50 = $900.00.
Overtime pay: 2.5 × ($22.50 × 1.5 = $33.75) = $84.38.
Tips & Key Notes
- FLSA overtime is calculated on a 7-day workweek basis, not by the daily shift (except in California, which mandates daily overtime after 8 hours).
- Rounding rules: Under federal guidelines, employers can round time increments to the nearest 15-minute mark (7-minute grace rule).
- Keep accurate records: Employers must retain payroll records for at least three years under federal compliance standards.
