A note on overtime and rounding
This tool totals the hours and pay you enter directly — it doesn't apply an automatic overtime multiplier or a specific clock-rounding convention on top, since both vary significantly by jurisdiction, employer policy, and employment type. If overtime applies to your situation, entering regular and overtime hours as separate line items at their respective rates gives an accurate total without the tool needing to guess at rules that differ from one workplace to the next.

Once totaled, bill a client for the hours with the site's Invoice Generator.
Frequently asked questions
+Is this timesheet calculator really free, with no sign up?
Yes. There's no account and no limit on how many times you can use it.
+Does it handle overtime automatically?
This tool totals hours and applies your hourly rate to what you enter — it doesn't automatically apply a specific overtime multiplier, since overtime rules vary significantly by jurisdiction, employer policy, and employment type. If overtime applies, calculate the regular and overtime hours as separate entries at their respective rates.
+How should I handle rounding — like clocking in at 9:07?
Rounding conventions (to the nearest 15 minutes, 6 minutes, or not at all) vary by workplace policy. Enter the actual times or hours your specific situation calls for; this tool computes exactly what you enter without applying its own rounding rules on top.
+Is my data sent anywhere?
No. Everything is computed directly in your browser.
