Tracking work hours and managing extra hours is crucial in Brazil’s workplaces, and the Calculadora de Horas makes it simple and accurate in 2025. This free online tool, aligned with Brazil’s labor laws (Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho, CLT), helps employees, businesses, and freelancers calculate horas trabalhadas (worked hours) and understand banco de horas (hour bank). Mistakes in tracking can cost employees R$100-R$1,000 monthly and businesses R$1,000-R$10,000 in fines. This easy-to-read guide explains the difference between horas trabalhadas and banco de horas, how Calculadora de Horas helps, and practical tips to use it effectively. Let’s make time tracking clear and stress-free!
Horas trabalhadas are the total hours you work in a day or week, including regular hours, overtime, night shifts, and holidays, minus breaks. Under the CLT:
Regular Hours: Up to 8 hours/day, 44 hours/week.
Overtime: Hours beyond 8/day or 44/week, paid at 50% extra (100% on holidays).
Night Shifts: Hours from 22:00-05:00, paid at 20% extra.
Breaks: 1-hour lunch for shifts over 6 hours; 15 minutes for 4-6 hours.
Example: You work 08:00-18:00 with a 1-hour break. That’s 9 horas trabalhadas (8 regular + 1 overtime).
Banco de horas is an agreement where extra hours worked are saved for time off later, instead of immediate overtime pay. Under the CLT:
Extra hours are banked for use within 6-12 months.
Must follow a collective agreement or contract.
Helps businesses avoid overtime costs and employees gain flexible time off.
Example: You work 2 extra hours/day for 5 days (10 hours). Instead of R$150 overtime pay, you bank 10 hours for time off later.
The Calculadora de Horas tracks horas trabalhadas and helps identify hours for banco de horas, ensuring accuracy and compliance.
Mistakes in tracking horas trabalhadas or banco de horas can lead to:
Employees: Losing R$100-R$1,000/month in pay or time off.
Businesses: Fines of R$1,000-R$10,000 for CLT violations or payroll errors.
Freelancers: Incorrect billing, costing R$50-R$500 per project.
The Calculadora de Horas simplifies tracking by calculating total hours worked and separating regular and extra hours, which can be banked. It’s vital for businesses with 20+ employees (required to track hours under the CLT) and useful for smaller teams or freelancers.
The Calculadora de Horas makes tracking easy by:
Calculating Horas Trabalhadas: Tracks total hours, including breaks, overtime, and night shifts.
Identifying Extra Hours: Separates hours beyond 8/day or 44/week for banco de horas.
