Clock-out time calculator
Enter when you start, how many paid hours you work and your unpaid break. It shows what time you clock out.
Not legal, tax or payroll advice. General information only; results are estimates. Read the full notice.
Examples: start 8:00 AM, 8 paid hours, 30-minute unpaid break: clock out at 4:30 PM. Start 10:00 PM, 7.5 paid hours, 30-minute unpaid break: clock out at 6:00 AM (next day).
Estimate based on what you entered. Not legal or payroll advice; check it against your employer's records.

Questions
How do I work out what time I can clock out?
Add your paid hours and your unpaid break to your start time. Starting at 8:00 AM, working 8 paid hours and taking a 30-minute unpaid break ends at 4:30 PM.
Does the break change the clock-out time?
In this calculator, yes. The break is unpaid time away from work, so it is added to the day. A break of 0 minutes leaves the clock-out time at start plus paid hours, which is 4:00 PM for the 8:00 AM start.
What if my shift goes past midnight?
The Day line says Next day when the clock-out time falls on the day after you start.
Can I type hours like 7.5 or 7:30?
Yes. Type 7.5, 7:30 or 7h 30m in the paid hours box. A plain number such as 8 means hours.
What if I need to be there longer, such as 8 hours including lunch?
Type 0 in the unpaid break box and the full length, such as 8, in the paid hours box.
