Enter your annual salary and typical hours to see exactly what it works out to per hour, week, and month.
The basic formula is simple: divide your annual salary by the total number of hours you actually work in a year. That's your salary divided by (hours per week × weeks worked per year). If you work a standard 40-hour week for all 52 weeks, that's 2,080 hours a year — so a $65,000 salary works out to roughly $31.25 an hour.
The tricky part is that "weeks worked per year" isn't always 52. If you take two weeks of unpaid leave, your actual hourly value on the weeks you do work is slightly higher, since the same salary is being earned over fewer working weeks. This calculator lets you adjust that number so the result matches your real schedule.
Keep in mind this is your gross rate — before taxes, health insurance, retirement contributions, or other deductions. It's also worth remembering that a salaried rate often includes the value of benefits (paid time off, insurance, retirement matching) that an equivalent hourly job might not, so a straight dollar-for-dollar comparison between a salaried and hourly offer isn't always apples to apples.
For a standard 40-hour week, divide your annual salary by 2,080 (the number of work hours in a 52-week year). That gives a rough hourly figure without needing a calculator.
No — this tool converts a salary into its equivalent flat hourly rate. If you want to see what overtime pay would look like on top of an hourly rate, use the overtime calculator instead.
Only if they're guaranteed and predictable. Including a variable or uncertain bonus will overstate your reliable hourly rate — it's usually more accurate to convert base salary alone and treat bonuses separately.
Your effective hourly rate can shift depending on how many hours you actually work. If you're salaried and regularly work more than 40 hours a week, your true hourly rate is lower than this calculator shows, since the same pay is spread across more hours.
