Understanding Time Card Concepts

Regular Hours

The standard number of hours an employee is scheduled to work, typically 40 hours per week in many regions. This forms the baseline for calculating pay.

Overtime Hours

Any hours worked beyond the defined regular hours. Overtime is often compensated at a higher pay rate (e.g., 1.5 times the regular rate, also known as "time and a half").

Time In / Time Out

The exact times an employee starts (Time In) and stops (Time Out) their work shifts. Accurate recording of these times is crucial for calculating total hours worked.

Breaks

Periods during the workday when an employee is not working. Depending on local labor laws and company policy, breaks can be paid or unpaid. Unpaid breaks are typically deducted from the total hours worked.

Total Hours Worked

The sum of all hours an employee has spent working, after deducting any unpaid breaks. This figure is used to calculate gross pay.

Pay Rate

The amount of compensation an employee receives for each hour of regular work.

Overtime Rate

The increased rate of pay for hours worked in overtime. This is often legally mandated and is typically a multiple of the regular pay rate (e.g., 1.5x or 2x).
