Instructions For The Work Week Calculator
Follow these steps to customize the work week calculator so the answers are correct for your inputs:
- Start Date: Click the calendar icon on the right side of the field to enter the first day of the time period you’d like to calculate.
- End Date: Click the calendar icon on the right side of the field to enter the last day of the time period you’d like to calculate. By default, this day will be counted toward the work week.
- Hours in a Typical Work Day: If you’re curious to know the amount of work hours during the time period, adjust the hours in this field.
- Work Days: Select the days of the week you work. This defaults to a 40-hour work week calculator, but can be adjusted for any work schedule.
- Holidays: This is the list of the current US federal holidays given each year.
- Select all holidays: Click this option to exclude every US federal holiday from the work days calculation.
- Individual holidays: Or, click individual listed holidays to exclude those from the work days calculation.
- Include End Date in Calculation: This gives you one last way to customize the calculator. It defaults to include the last day toward your count. However, you can uncheck the box.
Hit “Calculate.”
Scroll down to view the results in the green box below. You’ll also see how many work hours and how many work days are in the time period.
