A time card turns clock-in and clock-out times into hours you can be paid for. The two places it usually goes wrong are breaks and overtime, so this guide covers both.

Overtime rules in each country

CountryOvertime startsUsual rate
USAfter 40 hours a week (non-exempt employees); some states also count by the day1.5×
AustraliaAfter 38 ordinary hours a week, or outside the hours in your awardOften 1.5× for the first 2–3 hours, then 2×
IndiaAfter 8 hours a day or 48 hours a week (OSH Code, in force since 21 November 2025)2×, with the worker's consent

Worked example

Example: US, $25 an hour, Monday to Friday

9:00 to 18:30 with a 30-minute break is 9 hours a day, 45 hours a week.

Regular: 40 × $25 = $1,000. Overtime: 5 × $37.50 = $187.50.

Gross pay: $1,187.50 for the week.

To see what that week's pay means over a year after tax, use the hourly to salary calculator.

How to use this calculator

  1. Tick the days you worked and enter your in and out times.
  2. Enter unpaid break minutes for each day.
  3. Add your hourly rate. Overtime rules fill in for your country, and you can change them.
  4. Print the time card or copy the totals into your timesheet.

FAQs

Are lunch breaks paid?

Usually not, if you're free to leave your work. In the US, short breaks of 5 to 20 minutes generally count as paid time; longer meal breaks usually don't.

When does overtime start?

In the US, after 40 hours a week for non-exempt employees. In Australia, after 38 ordinary hours or as your award says. In India, under the OSH Code, after 8 hours a day or 48 a week, at twice the ordinary rate.

How do I enter a night shift?

Just enter the start and end times. If the end is earlier than the start, we count it as finishing the next day.

Do I need to convert minutes to decimals?

No, the calculator does it. Each day's hours are shown as decimals, ready for payroll.
