How to use the biweekly time card calculator
Calculate fourteen days of clock-in and clock-out entries in one place. WorkTimeCheck totals both weeks while estimating overtime independently within each seven-day workweek instead of treating 80 hours as one overtime threshold.
If week one totals 45 hours and week two totals 35 hours, the display estimates 5 overtime hours rather than zero overtime across an 80-hour combined period.
How the two-week time card works
The biweekly calculator contains 14 daily rows and totals both weeks in one view. Each day can have its own clock-in time, clock-out time and unpaid break, which is useful when schedules vary across the pay period.
Why overtime is checked week by week
The optional overtime estimate evaluates each seven-day week separately rather than simply checking whether the combined total exceeds 80 hours. For example, 45 hours in week one and 35 hours in week two produces a 5-hour overtime estimate even though the combined total is exactly 80 hours.
This does not determine legal overtime eligibility. It is a transparent calculation convention used for the estimate shown by WorkTimeCheck.
Frequently asked questions
Is WorkTimeCheck free?

Are my time entries uploaded?
No. The calculator runs in your browser; WorkTimeCheck does not require you to submit employee time records to use the tool.
Is biweekly overtime based on 80 hours?
WorkTimeCheck does not use a simple 80-hour threshold. Its optional display estimate evaluates each seven-day workweek separately at 40 hours. Actual rules and eligibility may differ.
Can I enter different breaks on each of the 14 days?
Yes. Every day has its own unpaid-break field.
How is estimated biweekly pay calculated?
The calculator applies the entered hourly rate to estimated regular hours and uses 1.5 times that rate for its optional overtime estimate. Actual payroll treatment may differ.
