How the working hours calculator works
A day's hours are each shift's length minus its break. A week is that times your working days.
A month is a week × 52 ÷ 12 — the usual payroll average, not any particular month. A year is your working days × 52, minus any days off you enter.
Shifts can run past midnight, and working weeks aren't assumed: Sunday–Thursday and Monday–Saturday are one click away.
Examples
