Find the number of hours and minutes between two times.
Find the total hours and minutes between two specific dates and times.
Enter a start time and end time to calculate the exact number of hours and minutes between them — useful for timesheets, hourly pay calculations, or figuring out shift lengths without doing the subtraction by hand (especially across the noon/midnight boundary, which trips up manual math).
Example: a shift from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM comes out to exactly 9 hours — enter your own start and end times above, including an optional unpaid break to subtract.
Tracking hours accurately is essential for payroll, freelance billing, and project management. This calculator finds exact hours and minutes between any two times, including overnight shifts and date-spanning periods.
Payroll and billing systems often use decimal hours. For example, 7 hours 30 minutes = 7.5 decimal hours. To convert minutes to decimal, divide by 60. Both formats are shown in the results.
The "Hours Between Two Dates" feature handles shifts that span multiple days — useful for overnight workers, multi-day projects, and any scenario where start and end fall on different calendar dates.
Standard work is typically 8 hours per day or 40 hours per week. Hours beyond this threshold qualify for overtime compensation. Knowing exact hours worked is the first step in verifying your pay.
