About Employee Calculators

Free, private calculators and guides that help US employees understand the hours they work and the pay they earn.

Built around the workday

Checking a time card, comparing an hourly rate with a salary, or making sense of overtime should not require building a spreadsheet from scratch. Employee Calculators answers those everyday questions with focused tools that work instantly, on any device, with no signup.

Our main audience is US employees. The same arithmetic also helps managers, bookkeepers, freelancers, and job seekers.

What you will find here

31 tools and 31 guides, organized by task:

  • Work time: Total your hours from clock times, timesheets, and durations.
  • Overtime: Split regular and overtime hours and price them.
  • Salary & rates: Hourly and annual pay, raises, and freelance rates.
  • Pay: Gross pay for a pay period, bonuses, piece work, and holidays.
  • Shifts & breaks: Overnight shifts, night differentials, and paid or unpaid breaks.
  • PTO & leave: Paid time off accrual and future balances.
  • Commission: Earnings from flat and tiered commission plans.

There is also a printable weekly time card and a weekly pay tracker that keeps your history on your own device.

How we build each calculator

Every calculator starts with a research record: what people need, the formula, official sources where rules are involved, edge cases, and worked test cases. Each one shows its formula, explains its assumptions, and is covered by automated tests before it is published. Read the full standard in our methodology.

What we do not do

We do not calculate taxes or take-home pay, and we do not make legal determinations about what an employer owes. Those depend on details we cannot see. Our tools estimate gross amounts from your inputs and link to sources so you can check the rules yourself.

Private by design

The values you enter are calculated in your browser and are never sent to us. See the privacy notice for details.
