How to calculate work hours

Subtract your start time from your end time, then subtract any unpaid break time.

Work hours = End time − Start time − Unpaid break

Example

If you work from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM, your shift lasts 8 hours 30 minutes. After subtracting a 30-minute unpaid break, your total work time is 8 hours.

What if a shift crosses midnight?

If your end time is earlier than your start time, Numviro assumes the shift ended the following day. For example, 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM is treated as an 8-hour overnight shift before breaks.

Frequently asked questions

Does break time count as work time?

This calculator subtracts the break minutes you enter. Whether a break must be paid depends on local rules and workplace policies.

How do I convert minutes to decimal hours?

Divide minutes by 60. For example, 30 minutes equals 0.5 hours and 15 minutes equals 0.25 hours.

Can I use this for night shifts?

Yes. Overnight shifts that pass midnight are supported automatically.

Can I estimate weekly work hours?

Yes. Enter the number of days you work each week and Numviro multiplies the daily worked hours by that number.
