A break calculation answers a practical payroll question: how many paid working hours remain after breaks, and do those hours sit inside Iran's ordinary working-time limits? Iran Labour Law Article 51 caps ordinary working hours at 8 hours per day and 44 hours per week, except where the law provides a specific exception.
The same timesheet also needs the right category. Hard, hazardous, and underground jobs use a lower maximum of 6 hours per day and 36 hours per week under Article 52. Shift work can exceed daily or weekly ordinary limits, but Article 57 caps it at 176 hours over four consecutive weeks.
Use this formula for a single shift: paid working time equals total time from start to finish minus unpaid break time, plus any break time that the law, contract, or policy treats as working time. For a 09:00 to 18:00 shift with one unpaid 60-minute break, the span is 9 hours and paid working time is 8 hours.
At 400,000 rials per hour, straight-time gross pay is 8 hours times 400,000 rials, or 3,200,000 rials, before taxes, deductions, premiums, contract terms, Friday work, night work, or overtime handling. The 8-hour paid total also matches the Article 51 ordinary daily cap for work that is not hard, hazardous, underground, shift-based, or otherwise excepted.
Iranian break entries are not all simple deductions. Article 78 requires a mother in a workplace with female workers to receive 30 minutes for nursing after every three hours until the child reaches age two, and that nursing time counts as working hours. Subtracting that time from paid hours understates payroll.
Other timesheet categories change the review. Article 54 covers alternate work where the worker controls intervals and need not stay at the workplace, but the total span including working hours, intervals, and overtime cannot exceed 15 hours per day. Iran also uses the Solar Hijri calendar, so local date entry needs Persian-calendar support or reliable conversion to Gregorian payroll periods.
A one-off break calculation is enough for a single shift, a quick payroll check, or a corrected entry with clear start time, end time, and break length. It is also enough when the shift has no Friday work, no 22:00-06:00 night work, no nursing break, and no special worker category.
A managed workflow becomes necessary when managers approve weekly time, reconcile Solar Hijri dates to payroll periods, review 44-hour weekly totals, or separate normal hours from premiums. Everhour Reporting can group tracked time by member, project, date range, and metadata, then export CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF files for payroll review.

Yes. Iran Labour Law Article 51 caps ordinary working hours at 8 hours per day unless the law provides a specific exception. Daily hours can be distributed unevenly by agreement, but Article 51 Note 1 says the weekly total may not exceed 44 hours.
No. Article 78 requires 30 minutes for nursing after every three hours until the child reaches age two in workplaces with female workers, and that time counts as working hours. A payroll calculation should include that time in paid working time.
The common mistake is subtracting every break-like entry as unpaid time. Nursing breaks under Article 78 count as working hours, while an unpaid meal or personal break depends on the applicable policy, contract, or payroll rule. Classify the entry before subtracting it.
Split the shift by clock time. Article 53 defines day work as 06:00-22:00 and night work as 22:00-06:00. Article 58 adds a 35% premium for each hour of night work for non-shift workers, and mixed work applies the night allowance to night hours.
Friday does not change the arithmetic for subtracting unpaid breaks, but it changes payroll review. Article 62 makes Friday the paid weekly holiday unless another fixed weekly day is substituted, and Article 62 Note 1 adds 40% wages for workers who work on Friday instead.
Everhour Reporting lets managers build reports with columns, grouping, filters, date ranges, and exports in CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF. Teams can review approved time by member and period, then separate ordinary hours, break adjustments, and premium-related categories before payroll handoff.
Everhour timecards can track clock-in, clock-out, breaks, and auto clock-out behavior, then show daily, weekly, and monthly work-hour totals. Weekly timecards can be submitted and approved before payroll review, which protects reviewed entries from casual edits.
Use approved time entries, structured break categories, and exportable reporting instead of rebuilding payroll checks by hand. Everhour Reporting gives teams cleaner review files and fewer manual spreadsheet corrections.
