Formula Used

The calculator uses these formulas:

Total Work Hours = Daily Work Hours × Number of Workdays Total Lunch Breaks = Lunch Break Duration × Number of Workdays Total Hours Worked = Total Work Hours + Total Lunch Breaks

Where:

Daily Work Hours = Hours worked each day (excluding breaks)
Number of Workdays = Days worked in the week (typically 5 for full-time)
Lunch Break Duration = Length of each lunch break in minutes

Worked Example

Let's calculate for a typical week:

Daily Work Hours: 8 hours
Number of Workdays: 5
Lunch Break Duration: 30 minutes

Calculations:

Total Work Hours = 8 × 5 = 40 hours
Total Lunch Breaks = 30 × 5 = 150 minutes (2.5 hours)
Total Hours Worked = 40 + 2.5 = 42.5 hours

So for this week, you would have worked a total of 42.5 hours including breaks.
