Electrician Time Card Calculator — Timesheet for five 8-hour days plus a Saturday morning

A weekly time card pre-set the way electricians actually work: five 8-hour days plus a Saturday morning. Adjust the shifts to your own week — overtime split and gross pay follow instantly.

In short: This card starts from a typical electrician week — Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM with a 30-minute unpaid break (8 paid hours), plus Saturday 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM (4 paid hours) — at $28/hour. That week totals 44:00 hours and $1,288.00 gross under the federal weekly rule. Change any shift, break or the rate and the whole week recalculates.

How It Works — Overtime for Electricians

The card turns each shift into paid minutes (clock-out minus clock-in, minus unpaid breaks; overnight shifts roll into the next day), then splits the week: the first 40 paid hours are regular, the rest are overtime at 1.5×. Rules summarized from the US Department of Labor (FLSA). Last verified: November 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are electricians exempt from overtime?

Most are not. Licensed journeymen and apprentices paid by the hour are non-exempt employees under the FLSA, so overtime is owed past 40 hours a week. A genuine executive or administrative exemption is rare in the trades — a salary or a title alone does not create one.

Does travel time between job sites get paid?

Yes. Travel that is part of the working day — shop to first site, site to site, back for materials — is hours worked. The normal commute from home to the first site (and home from the last) is the usual unpaid exception, unless you are carrying required equipment or responding to a call.

Does on-call time count as hours worked?

Only when the restrictions are so tight that you cannot use the time for yourself — for example, having to stay on site or respond within a few minutes. Simply carrying a phone and staying reachable is usually not compensable; the hours you actually work when called in always are.

How do I check a paycheck with a Saturday call-out?

Rebuild the week here from your time records, then compare three numbers with the stub: total paid hours, overtime hours, and the overtime rate, which must be 1.5× your regular rate including any differential.

Does this card save my week?

Yes — automatically, in your browser’s local storage on this device only. Nothing is uploaded and there is no account. Archive a finished week and it stays viewable on the same device (up to 12 archived weeks).

How it works — the formula

The formula: Gross = (regular hours × rate) + (overtime hours × rate × 1.5), where overtime hours are the paid hours beyond 40 in the workweek.

Worked example

The pre-loaded week — Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM with a 30-minute unpaid break (8 paid hours), plus Saturday 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM (4 paid hours) — is Monday 8 h, Tuesday 8 h, Wednesday 8 h, Thursday 8 h, Friday 8 h, Saturday 4 h: 44:00 paid hours. At the pre-set rate that is 40:00 regular ($1,120.00) + 4:00 overtime ($168.00) = $1,288.00 gross before taxes.
