This free NZ work hours calculator and timesheet calculator lets you enter your start time, finish time, and unpaid break for each day of the week to calculate total hours worked and gross pay. Useful for casual workers, contractors, employees checking timesheets, and employers running weekly payroll. Enter an hourly rate to see your gross weekly, fortnightly, and annual pay alongside your total hours.
Tick the days you worked, enter your start and finish times in 24-hour or 12-hour format, and enter the length of your unpaid break in minutes. The calculator subtracts your break from the total time between start and finish to give your actual paid hours for each day, then sums those across the week.
If you enter an hourly rate, the calculator multiplies your total hours by that rate to show your gross weekly, fortnightly, monthly, and annual pay. These figures are pre-tax. To find your take-home pay after PAYE, ACC levy, KiwiSaver, and student loan, enter your annual gross into the PAYE and salary calculator.
