Optional. Overtime is counted for each workweek. The federal Fair Labor Standards Act (29 U.S.C. § 207) sets overtime at not less than 1.5 times the regular rate for hours over 40 in a workweek, for employees it covers who are not exempt. Source: 29 U.S.C. § 207(a)(1).

Example: five days of clock punches like 7:54 AM to 4:38 PM, each with a 30-minute break. Added exactly, they come to 39 h 6 min (39.10 hours). Rounded to the nearest 15 minutes, the same punches come to 39 h (39.00 hours).

With rounding on, Monday's 7:54 AM clock in is counted as 8:00 AM and its 4:38 PM clock out as 4:45 PM.

Exact or rounded

This page starts with Round each time to set to the nearest 15 minutes so you can see its effect, unless you picked a rounding earlier on this device. The card rounds each punch, then adds up the day.

Questions

How do I add up clock in and clock out times?

Take each clock out time minus its clock in time, take off unpaid breaks, then add the days. In the example on this page the five days add up to 39 h 6 min (39.10 hours) exactly.

How does rounding to 15 minutes work here?

HoursPad rounds each clock time to the nearest mark, with a tie going up. It never just rounds down. In the example, the same punches come to 39 h (39.00 hours) when rounded to the nearest 15 minutes.

Which rounding does my employer use?

HoursPad cannot tell. Your employer or payroll department can say whether they round time clock punches and how. Choose No rounding in Settings to see the exact total.

Can I clock in and out more than once a day?

Yes. Use + Add in and out under any day, up to six pairs. The gaps between pairs are not counted.
