"Running late"

Is "I'm actually running late" same as "I'm going to be late"?

what does it imply when one of the speakers tells that in a conversation? Is it used as an excuse to cut off the conversation or is that the situation?

for instance:
What's up? heading to work place?
reply: Last day at this work place and I'm actually running late!

Thank ya very much!
