You came here to organize hours worked in Hungary into records that payroll, finance, and project managers can use. A useful record does more than show a daily total. It identifies the worker, date, work category, project or client when relevant, ordinary working time, extraordinary working time, standby duty, leave, and the start and end times for work and standby actually performed.
Hungarian Labour Code section 134 requires employers to record the duration of ordinary working time, extraordinary working time, standby duty, leave, and certain agreed voluntary overtime. The record also has to stay current. That matters for monthly payroll checks, overtime limits, manager approvals, client invoices, and internal reviews when a worker splits the same week across billable projects, internal work, and absence.
A practical Hungarian time record separates statutory fields from commercial fields. Statutory fields show the facts needed for working-time compliance: date, person, start time, end time, ordinary work, extraordinary work, standby duty, and leave. Billing fields show client, project, task, billable status, rate, notes, and approval status. Mixing them into one free-text note makes payroll review slower and weakens the audit trail.
Project work needs the same discipline. A developer who works 6 hours on a client feature, 1 hour on internal support, and 1 hour on leave-related administration should not appear as one 8-hour project entry. Separate rows preserve the legal working-time picture and the commercial story. They also prevent a client invoice from absorbing non-billable time that belongs in capacity planning or payroll context.
Hungary's general full daily working time is eight hours under the Hungarian Labour Code. Scheduled working time is generally capped at twelve hours per day and forty-eight hours per week, with overtime included in those limits. Time tracking should make daily length, weekly totals, and overtime categories visible before payroll closes, because a late correction can affect both pay and scheduling records.
Overtime treatment also depends on the day and the arrangement. Overtime beyond scheduled daily working time, a working-time frame, or a settlement period carries a 50% wage supplement or equivalent time off when employment rules or an agreement allow it. Overtime on a weekly rest day or rest period carries a 100% premium, reduced to 50% if another weekly rest day or rest period is provided. Public holiday overtime carries a 100% premium.
A one-off time tool is enough when you need to total a small week, clean up a contractor invoice, or prepare a quick internal check. It works best when the team is small, the entries are complete, and someone still reviews the figures before payroll or billing. Keep the exported record with the worker, dates, start and end times, categories, and approval notes.
A managed workflow becomes necessary when time affects budgets, retainers, recurring client work, or payroll review every month. Everhour Project Budgeting tracks hour-based and money-based budgets as people log time, supports recurring budget periods, and can send threshold alerts at 75%, 90%, 100%, or custom levels. That turns Hungarian working-time records and project spending into a repeatable review process instead of a last-minute spreadsheet cleanup.

Hungarian Labour Code section 134 requires current records for the duration of ordinary working time, extraordinary working time, standby duty, leave, and certain agreed voluntary overtime. The record must show start and end times for ordinary work, extraordinary work, and standby duty actually performed.
Yes. If the employer transfers scheduling rights to the employee in writing because the employee independently organizes the work, many working-time rules and the record obligation for ordinary and extraordinary working time and standby do not apply. Treat this as a documented employment arrangement, not an informal flexible-hours habit.
No. A weekly total alone misses the start and end times and the category of work performed. Hungarian records need enough detail to show ordinary work, extraordinary work, and standby duty as they happened. Daily entries also help identify whether overtime relates to scheduled working time, a weekly rest day, a rest period, or a public holiday.
Employee time records that identify workers are personal data under the GDPR. Processing needs a lawful basis, transparency, data minimization, storage limitation, security, and employment-context safeguards. Hungarian Labour Code section 11/A also requires prior written notice before employers use technical means to check work-related conduct.
The record should make the overtime context clear enough for payroll review. Overtime beyond scheduled daily working time, a working-time frame, or a settlement period carries a 50% wage supplement or equivalent time off when allowed. Weekly rest day or rest period overtime carries a 100% premium, reduced to 50% with substitute rest, while public holiday overtime carries a 100% premium.
Everhour Project Budgeting connects logged time to hour-based or money-based budgets, including one-time and recurring budget periods. Teams can set threshold alerts at 75%, 90%, 100%, or custom levels, so managers see budget pressure before approved time moves into billing or project review.
Track approved hours, budget progress, and client work in one repeatable workflow. Everhour gives teams budget alerts, recurring budget periods, and billing context from the same time records.
