Questions
What time does a 10-hour shift end?
Add 10 hours, plus any unpaid break, to the start time. A 6:00 AM start with a 30-minute unpaid break ends at 4:30 PM.
How many hours is four 10-hour days?
Four 10-hour days add up to 40 h. Five would be 50 h.
Should the break be inside the 10 hours?
That depends on how your own schedule is set up. This calculator takes 10 as paid hours and adds the unpaid break on top. If the break is already inside the 10 hours, set it to 0.
Does it handle a shift that runs past midnight?
Yes. A 4:00 PM start with 10 hours ends the next day, and the Day line says Next day.
