How to use this time card calculator with lunch
Enter clock-in and clock-out times for each day of the week. Overnight shifts are handled automatically — clocking out earlier than you clocked in rolls the shift into the next day.
Enter unpaid break or lunch minutes for each day, or tick “Breaks are paid” to keep them in the total.
Optionally choose an overtime rule (40h/week federal or California daily rules) and enter an hourly rate to see gross pay.
Read each day's total in the right-hand column and the grand total below the table, in h:mm or decimal hours.
Frequently asked questions
Should lunch be deducted from hours worked?
In the US, bona fide meal periods (typically 30 minutes or more, fully relieved of duty) are usually unpaid, so they're deducted. Short rest breaks of 5–20 minutes are normally paid. Check your employer's policy and state law.
How do I enter a 45-minute lunch?
Type 45 in the Break column for that day. The calculator subtracts it from the day's span between clock-in and clock-out.
What if I take two breaks in a day?
Add the minutes together — a 30-minute lunch plus a 15-minute break is 45 in the Break column.
