Online Time Clock

This one runs live. You press start when you begin and stop when you finish, and it counts while you work. That is different from typing yesterday's hours into a grid, and it matters because a time written down at the end of the day is a memory, while a punch is a record.

Use it for a single shift you are working right now. If you are reconstructing last week from notes, a grid is the better tool and there is one linked below.

Payroll almost always wants decimal hours, and clock times are in minutes, so every punch pair needs converting. The rule is minutes divided by 60. Twenty minutes is 0.33 of an hour, not 0.20.

The chart covers five-minute steps, which is enough for most punches. Round the shift total once at the end rather than converting and rounding each punch, or the errors stack in the same direction.

It is one clock, for one person, in one browser tab. Close the tab and the session is gone, nobody else can see it, and there is no record anyone could check later. For timing your own work that is fine, and it is why there is no sign-up.

It is not a workplace time clock. There is no way to tell who pressed the button, no approval step, and no history, so it cannot settle a disagreement about a shift six weeks later.

For a team you want punches tied to a person and a period, which is what the time clock app does: people clock in from their own phone, each period builds a timecard, and a manager signs it off. For converting a whole week by hand instead, use the time card calculator, and for the conversion on its own the minutes to hours converter.
