Hourly to Salary Calculator

Multiply your hourly rate by the number of hours you work per week, then multiply that by the number of weeks you work per year. The standard full-time baseline is 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, which is 2,080 hours a year. At that baseline, a $20/hour rate equals $41,600 a year. This calculator does the same maths for any hourly rate, hours-per-week, and weeks-per-year combination.

2,080 hours comes from 40 hours a week multiplied by 52 weeks a year, the conventional definition of a full-time working year in the US, UK, and most other markets. It is a reference point, not a rule: it does not subtract public holidays or paid leave (which most salaried employees still get paid for) but it also does not add any unpaid time off. If you know your actual working pattern differs, adjust the hours-per-week and weeks-per-year fields above rather than relying on the 2,080-hour default.

Every week you do not work and are not paid for reduces your effective annual figure. If you take four unpaid weeks off, working 48 weeks instead of 52, your annual equivalent falls by roughly 7.7% compared to the 52-week baseline, even though your hourly rate has not changed. This matters most for hourly workers, part-year contractors, and anyone comparing an hourly gig against a salaried role that includes paid holiday. Enter your real weeks-worked figure in the calculator above rather than assuming 52.

No. This tool converts a gross rate between pay periods; it applies no income tax, social security, payroll tax, or any other deduction. The annual figure it shows is what you earn before tax, not what lands in your bank account. To see actual net take-home, use a full take-home calculator for your specific market (UK, US, Australia, Ireland, and others are linked below), which applies that country's real tax bands and social contributions to the gross figure you calculate here.

This calculator assumes a consistent number of hours every week and does not model overtime premiums, shift differentials, or variable schedules. If your hours or overtime pay vary week to week, treat the output here as an average-week estimate rather than an exact figure. Workers in the Philippines with regulated overtime and holiday-pay premiums should use the dedicated Philippines overtime and holiday pay calculator instead, which is built around DOLE's specific multipliers.

At the standard 40-hour, 52-week baseline, $25/hour is $52,000 a year, $4,333 a month, or $1,000 a week, all gross. Change the hours-per-week or weeks-per-year fields above if your actual schedule is different.

At the standard 40-hour, 52-week baseline, $30/hour is $62,400 a year, $5,200 a month, or $1,200 a week, all gross. As with any hourly-to-annual conversion, the figure scales linearly: doubling your hourly rate doubles the annual equivalent at the same hours and weeks.

Use this tool for a plain full-time wage conversion: a fixed hourly or annual rate with a standard working pattern, no contracting structure involved. Use the Day Rate to Annual calculator instead if you are a contractor billing by the day and need to account for billable days rather than a fixed weekly schedule (unpaid time off, gaps between contracts, and the difference between a day rate and a permanent salary equivalent are modelled more directly there).

Yes. Pick your market from the currency selector above and every figure is formatted in that currency using its standard number formatting. The underlying maths is currency-agnostic: it is the same multiplication and division regardless of whether you are working in dollars, pounds, euros, or any other currency, since no tax or country-specific rule is applied.
