About this tool

A free time calculator and hours calculator: add hours and minutes together, subtract time, or calculate how many hours and minutes there are between two times, for work shifts, timesheets and journeys.

How to add and subtract time

  1. Choose what to work out. Time between two clock times (like a shift), or add and subtract amounts of time.
  2. Enter the times. End times earlier than the start, like a night shift, are counted across midnight.
  3. Read the answer. In hours and minutes, and as decimal hours for timesheets and pay.
