A time card calculation in Iran answers a practical payroll question: how many paid hours sit in the period, and which entries need separate treatment under Iranian working-time rules. Iran Labour Law Article 51 caps ordinary working hours at 8 hours per day, and Article 51 Note 1 caps the ordinary weekly total at 44 hours. Those limits frame the review before payroll, billing, or manager approval.
The same time card also needs local labels for Friday work, night work, and special worker categories. Article 62 makes Friday the paid weekly holiday unless another fixed weekly day applies, and Friday work carries an additional 40% of wages. Article 53 defines night work as 22:00 to 06:00, so overnight entries need clock-time splitting instead of a single daily total.
Start with each work segment, not just a daily total. Record the date, start time, end time, unpaid break time, paid break time, Friday or substitute rest-day status, and whether the worker falls under a special category. For hard, hazardous, and underground jobs, Article 52 sets a lower maximum of 6 hours per day and 36 hours per week, so the same time card can pass for one worker and fail for another.
Iran also has time entries that need explicit handling. Article 78 requires 30 minutes for nursing after every three hours until the child reaches age two, and that time counts as working hours. Article 54 caps alternate work at a 15-hour daily span from start to finish, including working hours, intervals, and overtime. Iran officially uses the Solar Hijri calendar, so payroll dates may need Persian-calendar entry or conversion.
Calculate paid time by adding work segments and paid time, then subtracting only breaks that do not count as working hours. Classify premium hours separately. Base pay equals total paid hours multiplied by the hourly wage. Friday premium equals Friday work hours multiplied by the hourly wage and 40%. Night premium for non-shift night hours equals night hours multiplied by the hourly wage and 35%.
For example, a non-shift hourly employee earns 1,800,000 Iranian rials per hour and records 46 paid hours in the week, including 6 Friday work hours and 4 night hours from 22:00 to 06:00. Base pay is 46 × 1,800,000 = 82,800,000 rials. Friday premium is 6 × 1,800,000 × 40% = 4,320,000 rials. Night premium is 4 × 1,800,000 × 35% = 2,520,000 rials, giving 89,640,000 rials before any separate overtime treatment.
A one-off calculation is enough when you need to verify one weekly card, price a draft invoice, or catch an obvious date or clock-time mistake. The check becomes limited once the same worker has repeated Friday work, mixed day and night spans, alternate work intervals, nursing breaks, or shift work that must be tested against Article 57's 176-hour cap over four consecutive weeks.
A managed workflow becomes the better option when managers need consistent rules, corrections, and signoff before payroll. Everhour Team Management supports lock rules, admin time correction, personal tracking limits, weekly capacity, approval workflow, roles, project assignments, team groups, and team-wide time policy defaults. Keep the legal classification in payroll review, then use the workflow to stop late edits and missing approvals from changing the record.

Paid working hours include the work segments the employee actually performs plus time that Iranian Labour Law treats as working time. Article 78 nursing breaks count as working hours. Friday is the paid weekly holiday under Article 62 unless another fixed weekly day applies, and Friday work needs a separate premium label instead of being buried in the ordinary total.
Use both checks. Article 51 sets an 8-hour ordinary daily cap, while Article 51 Note 1 allows uneven daily distribution by agreement as long as the weekly total does not exceed 44 hours. A daily total above 8 hours needs context, and a weekly total above 44 hours needs separate review even when each daily entry looks reasonable.
Article 53 defines night work as 22:00 to 06:00. A shift that runs from 18:00 to 02:00 contains day hours and night hours, so one daily total hides the premium calculation. For non-shift workers, Article 58 adds a 35% premium for each hour of night work, and mixed work needs the night allowance applied only to night hours.
Shift work can exceed 8 hours in a day or 44 hours in a week under Article 57, but the total may not exceed 176 hours over four consecutive weeks. That rule changes the review period. A weekly time card can look high while still needing a four-week shift-work calculation before payroll treats it as compliant or noncompliant.
Using Gregorian dates without checking the Solar Hijri payroll period can place an entry in the wrong month or week. Iran officially uses the Solar Hijri calendar, so local time cards need Persian-calendar support or a reliable conversion step. The safest record keeps the local work date visible before exporting totals to a Gregorian-based payroll or accounting file.
Everhour Team Management lets admins set lock rules, correct time for team members, define personal tracking limits, and route submitted time through approvals. That workflow gives managers a controlled record before payroll review, especially when time cards include Friday work, night-hour splits, or capacity checks.
Everhour Reporting turns logged time into customizable reports with columns, grouping, filters, date ranges, and exports in CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF. Managers can review team hours by person, project, period, and approval status before sending payroll or billing totals outside Everhour.
Set time policies, approvals, locked periods, and manager corrections before totals reach payroll. Everhour Team Management keeps submitted hours controlled, reviewed, and ready for payroll handoff.
