2,080 hours a year
The standard full-time year is 52 weeks × 40 hours. Divide your annual salary by that for an hourly rate.
Compare offers fairly
Always compare on annual total compensation, not hourly — benefits, bonus and paid leave change the real value.
Overtime changes it
Hourly roles often pay 1.5× overtime, which can push effective pay well above the base rate.

FAQ
Salary converter FAQ
How do I convert an annual salary to an hourly rate?
Divide the annual salary by (hours per week × weeks worked per year). At $60,000, 40 h/week and 52 weeks, that is 60,000 / 2,080 ≈ $28.85/hour.
How many working hours are in a year?
52 weeks × 40 hours = 2,080 hours. If you have paid vacation, some use 2,000 hours (50 weeks) as a more conservative estimate.
How do I convert an hourly rate to annual?
Multiply the hourly rate by hours per week and weeks per year. At $30/h × 40 × 52, that is $62,400/year.
What is the difference between gross and net salary?
Gross is before taxes and deductions; net (take-home) is after. This converter gives gross figures — use the tax calculator for your net amount.
Should I use 52 or fewer weeks?
Use 52 for salaried employees with paid leave. For hourly work with unpaid time off, subtract your unpaid weeks.
How is a monthly salary calculated?
Divide the annual salary by 12. Some payrolls pay slightly more in some months to average 12 equal payments.
What is bi-weekly pay?
Pay every two weeks: annual salary ÷ 26. Semi-monthly is twice a month: annual ÷ 24.
Is an hourly job worth more than salary?
Hourly jobs pay overtime (usually 1.5×) but can lack benefits and paid leave. Compare total compensation, not just the rate.
