Daily total = (End - Start) - Break. Total each week on its own row, because overtime is usually assessed per week, then sum both weeks for the period total that goes to payroll.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between bi-weekly and semi-monthly?
Bi-weekly means every two weeks — 26 pay periods a year on fixed 14-day cycles. Semi-monthly means twice a month, usually the 15th and last day, giving 24 periods. This template is for the bi-weekly, two-week cycle.
Why total each week separately?
Overtime is almost always calculated on a weekly basis. If you only totalled the full 14 days, you could miss overtime earned in one week, so each week gets its own total before they are combined.
How does this hand off to payroll?
Once approved, the period summary gives payroll regular hours, overtime hours, and the total in one place. Keep the signed timesheet on file to support the pay run if any hours are queried.
