How to use this calculator

Choose the first workweek's start date and fill the two seven-day sections. Calculate to see each week separately and the combined period. Keep each workweek aligned with your employer's definition.

A worked example

A first week of 45 hours and second week of 35 hours total 80 hours. Under a selected 40-hour weekly threshold, the first week has 5 overtime hours; the second has none.

The calculation

Period total = week one minutes + week two minutes. Any overtime estimate must be calculated separately for each workweek.

Before you use the result

A pay period is not an overtime averaging period. Overnight shifts crossing a weekly boundary must be split. This timecard totals time; use the overtime estimator for explicitly stated pay assumptions.

Common scenarios

Use this calculator whenever you need to verify your hours, check a paycheck, or prepare a timecard submission. The result is the same arithmetic the payroll department uses, displayed in a form you can inspect.

Common questions about Biweekly Timecard

How do I handle overnight shifts crossing a workweek?

Split the shift at the workweek boundary. Put each portion in its actual week so each weekly total is accurate for overtime purposes.

Can I use this for a biweekly pay period?

Yes. Fill both seven-day sections with your work periods. The calculator shows each week's subtotal and the combined period total.
