Shift pay calculator

Work out the hours and pay for any shift, including night shifts that finish the next day.

How it works

Enter your start and finish times, your break and your hourly rate. If your finish time is earlier than your start time, the calculator assumes the shift finished the next morning. Unpaid breaks are taken off your paid hours; paid breaks aren't.

Checking your payslip

Add up the pay for every shift in the pay period and compare it with the gross pay on your payslip. If the numbers don't match, check the hours, the rate and whether your breaks were paid.
