4 Calculators in One - Designed for Desk Workers

Standard Calculator

Clean, simple calculator for everyday arithmetic. Add, subtract, multiply, divide with an intuitive interface. Perfect for quick calculations without cluttering your desktop with another app.

Touch-friendly buttons work on all devices - from phones to desktops.

Work Hours Calculator

Calculate exact work hours from clock in/out times. Automatically deducts break time and handles overnight shifts. Perfect for timesheets, payroll verification, and freelance billing.

Shows results in both hour:minute and decimal format.

Break Time Calculator

Determine how many breaks you need based on work hours and optimal break frequency. Calculates your break ratio to ensure you're taking enough breaks for health and productivity.

Aim for 7-10% break time - the calculator warns if you're below this.

Calories Calculator

Compare calories burned while sitting vs standing. Enter your weight and hours, and see exactly how many extra calories you burn by using a standing desk or taking regular standing breaks.

Standing burns 33% more calories than sitting!

Bonus Feature: Time Since Last Break Tracker

This unique feature tracks how long you've been working since your last break. Click "Mark Break Taken" when you finish a break, and the timer starts counting. When you hit 2 hours (the maximum safe sitting time without health risks), you'll get an automatic alert.

Why 2 hours? Medical research shows that sitting for more than 2 hours without movement significantly increases blood clot risk, elevates blood pressure, and reduces metabolic rate. This simple tracker prevents those unconscious marathon work sessions that damage your health.

How to Use:

  1. 1. Take a 5-minute break (walk, stretch, or look out the window)
  2. 2. Click "Mark Break Taken" button
  3. 3. Timer starts tracking your work time
  4. 4. Get alerted when you've been working for 2 hours
  5. 5. Take another break and repeat!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this really free? No download or signup required?

Yes, completely free! No download, no signup, no credit card, no hidden fees. This calculator works 100% in your browser. We built it for desk workers who need quick access to calculations without the hassle of downloading software. Just bookmark this page and you're set.

Why is a web calculator better than downloading one?

Web calculators have zero risk of malware, take zero storage space, work on all your devices, and are always up-to-date automatically. Downloaded calculator apps often bundle adware, require updates, and only work on one device. Plus, this calculator includes specialized desk worker tools you won't find in standard calculator apps.

Can I use this calculator on my phone or tablet?

Absolutely! This calculator is fully responsive and works perfectly on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops. The buttons are touch-friendly, and all features adapt to smaller screens. Add this page to your phone's home screen for instant access like a native app.

How accurate is the work hours calculator?

Extremely accurate - it calculates down to the minute. Enter your exact clock in/out times and break duration, and you'll get precise work hours in both hour:minute format and decimal hours (for payroll systems). It even handles overnight shifts correctly.

What's the recommended break frequency for desk workers?

Medical research recommends a 5-minute break every 90 minutes for optimal health and productivity. This equals about 7-10% break time for an 8-hour workday. The break calculator shows if you're taking enough breaks and warns if you're below the healthy threshold. Most desk workers only take 3-5%, leading to burnout.

Does standing really burn that many more calories?

Yes! Standing burns approximately 50 more calories per hour than sitting due to muscle activation in your legs, core, and back. For an 8-hour workday, that's 400 extra calories - equivalent to a 45-minute jog. The calories calculator uses validated MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) values to show your exact calorie difference based on your weight.

How does DeskBreak automate these calculations?

While this calculator helps you plan and understand your needs, DeskBreak automates everything. It automatically tracks work hours, sends break reminders at perfect intervals, monitors your break compliance, and calculates your health metrics - all without manual input. Think of this calculator as the planning tool, and DeskBreak as the execution tool that runs in the background.

Stop Calculating Manually

DeskBreak automatically tracks your work hours, sends optimal break reminders, and monitors your health metrics - so you never need to calculate manually again.
