Convert hours and minutes to decimal hours
Divide minutes by 60: 07:30 equals 7.50 hours, not 7.30. Convert in either direction. HH:MM results round to the nearest minute; the main total is calculated in minutes before rounding.

How to calculate work hours
Net time is the difference between the end and start time, minus the break entered. Add one row per shift or per part of a split shift. Select the next-day checkbox when the shift ends the following day. Each row supports up to 24 hours; totals can exceed 24 hours.
Day shifts, overnight shifts and decimal hours: examples
09:00 to 17:30 with a 30-minute break gives 8 hours. 22:00 to 06:00 the next day with a 30-minute break gives 7 hours and 30 minutes. Together they total 15:30, or 15.50 decimal hours.
| Start | End | Break (minutes) | Net total (HH:MM) | Decimal hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 09:00 | 17:30 | 30 | 08:00 | 8 |
| 22:00 | 06:00 · Ends the next day | 30 | 07:30 | 7.5 |
What the result means
This tool calculates durations from your entries. It does not apply daylight saving changes, time zones, payroll rules or overtime policies. Decide which breaks to deduct under your company process. Check the inputs: the calculator does not verify attendance records.
Move from manual calculations to team time records
For actual employee time records on Windows, Control Laboral App offers a desktop client and a web dashboard with records and CSV exports. This calculator is a separate resource: it does not import or send data to that dashboard.
