How the Hourly to Salary Calculator works
Converts an hourly wage into weekly, monthly and annual equivalents so you can compare an hourly role against a salaried offer.
The annual figure is the hourly rate multiplied by hours worked per week, multiplied by weeks worked per year. Using 52 weeks assumes no unpaid time off.
annual = hourly × hours per week × weeks per year
Worked example
$25 an hour at 40 hours a week for 52 weeks is $52,000 a year — a useful shortcut being that hourly rate × 2 gives roughly the salary in thousands.
Things worth knowing
- If you take unpaid leave, use 48–50 weeks instead of 52.
- Salaried roles often include paid leave, health cover and retirement matching that an hourly rate does not. Compare total compensation, not just the headline number.
- Hourly work usually earns overtime; most salaried exempt roles do not.
