Employees work by the minute, but those minutes must be converted to dollars and cents via time clock conversion to provide them with correct paychecks. The process can be tricky as hours and minutes don’t automatically translate to decimals. A time clock conversion for payroll chart offers a short cut that payroll can use to speed up the process.
There is more to converting hours and minutes to decimals than simply adding a period between those hours and minutes. For example, if your employee works 40 hours and 23 minutes one week, you can’t multiply 40.23 by the hourly pay to get the correct wage. Instead, the minutes must be converted to decimals. Converting minutes to decimals is simple enough by dividing the minutes by 60. For example, 23 minutes is .38 decimal hours. See our quick minutes to decimal conversion chart below.
Eliminate Decimal Conversion Mistakes
But taking the time to make those conversions for each employee every week can really add up, pardon the pun—not to mention leave your payroll susceptible to mistakes. Instead, consider upgrading to an automatic solution.
Time tracking apps like ExakTime’s Time Clock App make it easy for your company to track all of the hours your employees work, without the hassle of paper time cards. Plus you can take advantage of the several bells and whistles these apps have like GPS tracking which lets your workers clock into the closest job site, security features like photo ID capture and even built-in compliance that allow employees to sign off on overtime, workplace safety and breaks. But the really brilliant part of these ingenious apps is their ability to automatically sync to payroll.
