Timesheet Templates for Word

Five timesheets as clean .docx tables — the format for workplaces that live in Word: type the times in, put your company name on the header, print it or save the filled sheet as a PDF for the payroll file. These are deliberately formula-free (Word doesn't really do math); when you want automatic totals, the same layouts exist as Excel and Google Sheets versions.

The Word set

Five sheets, ready for your letterhead.

Make it yours

The five-minute company template.

The real reason to want a timesheet in Word is ownership: two minutes of editing turns a generic sheet into your sheet. Add the company name above the title, set the manager field to the supervisor who actually signs, delete any column your workflow skips — then save that file as your master and print from it forever. Every sheet a new hire fills out looks like it came from the company, because it did.

If you keep letterhead in Word already, the header from our letterhead templates drops straight above the timesheet table — one document, fully branded.

Frequently asked questions

Why don't the Word versions calculate totals?
Because Word isn't a spreadsheet, and we'd rather be straight about that than ship a gimmick. Word technically supports field-code formulas inside tables, but they don't recalculate automatically, they break silently when rows move, and they've confused every office that ever relied on them. So the Word sheets are honest paper: you (or your payroll person) write the totals. When you want the math done for you, the identical layouts with real formulas are one page over, in Excel and Google Sheets.
What can I edit — and what should I?
Everything; it's an ordinary .docx with no protection or locked regions. The high-value edits: put your company name above the title, pre-fill the manager line, delete the lunch columns if your shop doesn't use them, and save the result as your own master template (File → Save As, keep it somewhere safe). Word's table tools handle rows the usual way — Tab at the end of the last row adds another, right-click deletes.
Which versions of Word open these files?
Word 2010 or newer, Word for Microsoft 365, the free Word for the web, LibreOffice Writer, and Apple Pages. The files use ordinary table formatting — no macros, no embedded fonts, no content controls — so they open cleanly in anything that reads .docx. Google Docs opens them too, though the table shading can shift slightly; if Google is your editor, you might prefer the native Google Sheets versions instead.
What's the cleanest way to print or PDF a filled sheet?
File → Save As → PDF (or Export → PDF) once the sheet is filled in — that freezes the layout so it prints identically anywhere, which is what you want for a payroll file. Printing straight from Word also works; the tables are sized for portrait US Letter with half-inch margins, so no scaling fiddling is needed. For sheets that get filled in by hand instead, the pre-made PDFs on each period page skip Word entirely.
