MySQL's SECOND(~) method returns the seconds portion of a given time or datetime.
Parameters

The time/datetime to retrieve the seconds from.
Return value
The seconds portion of a given time or datetime.
Examples
Consider the following table about the check in and check out times of some employees:
id | name | check_in | check_out |
|---|---|---|---|
1 | alex | 2020-04-16 09:30:01 | 2020-04-16 17:45:31 |
2 | bob | 2020-04-16 07:00:05 | 2020-04-16 15:28:22 |
3 | cathy | 2020-04-16 11:50:01 | 2020-04-16 20:05:40 |
The above sample table can be created using the code here.
Basic usage
To return the second that employees came into work:
SELECT name, SECOND(check_in)FROM employment;
+-------+------------------+| name | SECOND(check_in) |+-------+------------------+| alex | 1 || bob | 5 || cathy | 1 |+-------+------------------+
To return seconds from a time value:
SELECT SECOND('48:05:55');
+--------------------+| SECOND('48:05:55') |+--------------------+| 55 |+--------------------+
