Work Time Calculator With Lunch Break
Enter when you started, how long you need to work, and your unpaid lunch break. The calculator will show your clock-out time, paid work time, and total elapsed time.
Unpaid breaks are added to your work duration. For example, starting at 7:00 AM, working 8 paid hours, and taking a 30-minute unpaid lunch gives a 3:30 PM clock-out time.

Frequently asked questions
Does lunch count as work time?
A paid lunch generally counts toward paid work time, while an unpaid lunch extends the elapsed time between starting and clocking out. This calculator assumes the lunch entered is unpaid.
What time do I leave after 8 hours with a 30-minute lunch?
Add 8 hours 30 minutes to your start time. For example, a 7:00 AM start gives a 3:30 PM clock-out time.
Can I calculate a 7.5-hour workday?
Yes. Enter 7 paid hours and 30 paid minutes, then add any unpaid lunch or break.
What happens if my shift ends after midnight?
The calculator shows the clock-out time and labels it “the next day.”
Is this the same as the therapy productivity calculator?
No. This calculator adds paid work time and unpaid breaks. The therapy calculator works backward from billable therapy minutes and a productivity percentage.
