How to convert hourly pay to annual salary
To estimate annual gross pay from an hourly wage, multiply your hourly rate by your regular paid hours per week and the number of paid weeks in the year.
- overtime pay = hourly rate × overtime multiplier × overtime hours per week × paid weeks
- total annual pay = regular pay + overtime pay + predictable annual bonus
For a 40-hour schedule paid for all 52 weeks, annual paid hours are 2,080. But if you work 37.5 hours, take unpaid leave, work seasonally or have another arrangement, use your actual paid hours and paid weeks instead.
How to convert salary to hourly pay
Divide annual gross salary by the number of paid hours you work over the year.
- contracted-hour equivalent uses regular paid hours only
- effective hourly rate uses regular hours plus expected overtime
If you regularly work additional unpaid hours, include them to see your effective hourly rate across the time you actually work. This does not determine what an employer legally owes; it is a gross-pay comparison.
How do paid holidays affect the calculation?
If you receive a fixed annual salary that already includes paid holiday, use 52 paid weeks. Taking paid holiday does not normally reduce the annual salary. If you are paid only for time worked, work seasonally or take unpaid leave, reduce the number of paid weeks to reflect the time you expect to be paid.
Is overtime included?
This calculator lets you add expected regular overtime and choose an overtime multiplier. Overtime entitlement and rates depend on the contract, role and location. In the US, covered non-exempt employees generally receive at least time-and-a-half after 40 hours in a workweek under federal law, but exemptions and state rules can matter.
Gross pay vs take-home pay
Gross pay is income before tax and other deductions. Take-home pay can differ because of income tax, payroll taxes/National Insurance, pension contributions, health insurance, student-loan repayments and other deductions. Use the UK Take-Home Pay Calculator or another country-specific take-home-pay calculator for a more complete estimate.
