How It Works

Converting between annual salary and hourly rate helps you compare different compensation structures and understand your true earning potential.

Hourly Rate = Annual Salary ÷ (Hours/Week × Weeks/Year)

Standard full-time: 40 hours/week, 52 weeks/year (2,080 hours)

Example:

$75,000 ÷ (40 × 52) = $75,000 ÷ 2,080 = $36.06/hour

Key Considerations:

1
Paid Time Off
Standard calculation assumes 52 weeks. Adjust for unpaid leave or vacation
2
Overtime Pay
Hourly workers typically get 1.5x pay for hours over 40 per week
3
Benefits Package
Consider health insurance, retirement, and other benefits in total comp
