Complete Guide to Tracking Worked Hours and Calculating Gross Pay

Accurate work time tracking is essential for freelancers, contractors, and small business employees looking to calculate accurate bi-weekly or monthly billable earnings.

How to Calculate Total Work Hours Step-by-Step

To calculate your daily net hours, subtract your clock-in time from your clock-out time, then subtract any unpaid breaks (such as lunch):

Daily Net Hours = (Clock-Out Time - Clock-In Time) - Unpaid Break Duration

Minutes must be converted to decimal format for payroll purposes by dividing minutes by 60. For example, 45 minutes equals 0.75 hours (45 ÷ 60 = 0.75). Working 7 hours and 45 minutes results in 7.75 billable hours.

Understanding Standard Hours vs. Overtime (1.5x & 2.0x)

Under Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) regulations and standard international employment practices, a typical regular work week consists of 40 hours (or 8 hours daily).

Time and a Half (1.5x Multiplier)

Standard overtime rate applied to any hours exceeding 40 hours in a given workweek. With a $20.00/h base pay rate, overtime pays $30.00/h.

Double Time (2.0x Multiplier)

Commonly applied on statutory holidays, mandatory 7th-day shifts, or special hazard assignments. At $20.00/h, double-time yields $40.00/h.

Quick Minutes to Decimal Hours Reference Table

Actual Minutes Decimal Equivalent Example with 8 Hours Base
15 minutes 0.25 hrs 8h 15m = 8.25 hours
30 minutes 0.50 hrs 8h 30m = 8.50 hours
45 minutes 0.75 hrs 8h 45m = 8.75 hours
60 minutes 1.00 hr 9h 00m = 9.00 hours
