  • Sexagesimal System Precision

    We measure time using the Babylonian base-60 system (the sexagesimal system). Every hour contains exactly 60 units of minutes, and every minute contains 60 units of seconds. This standardized subdivision is essential for payroll normalization and high-precision scientific logging.

  • Payroll Decimals

    Converting partial hours (e.g. 1.25 hours) into whole minutes (75 mins) to ensure exact labor cost tracking.
