Hours Worked Calculator

To convert minutes to decimal hours, divide the minutes by 60. Example: 30 minutes = 30/60 = 0.5 hours. So, 8 hours and 30 minutes = 8.5 hours.

This tool calculates the total gross time. To determine overtime, subtract your standard shift (e.g., 8 hours) from the total result.

Yes, it is ideal for freelancers who charge by the hour and need to track the exact time spent on projects.
