How it works
Paid hours = daily-hour total − unpaid breaks. Hours above the entered threshold use the entered overtime multiplier for the modeled gross pay.
Assumptions
One seven-day scenario only. It does not determine compensable time, workweek rules, rounding, eligibility, state law, or payroll deductions.
About this calculator
This time card calculator makes a weekly hours total and a separate gross-pay scenario. It asks for the threshold and multiplier instead of assuming that one overtime rule applies to every worker.
How to use it
- Enter paid hours for each day in the defined workweek.
- Subtract only breaks that are actually unpaid under the applicable rule.
- Enter the regular-hour threshold, hourly rate, and overtime multiplier for your scenario.
- Compare the result with the employer’s official time and payroll record.
Use case

Total a seven-day time card with unpaid breaks, the regular-hour threshold, hourly rate, and overtime multiplier shown as editable assumptions rather than hidden payroll rules.
