About this tool
What the Salary to Hourly Calculator does
Converting between salary and hourly pay depends on the hours worked each week and the weeks worked or paid each year. A full-time year is commonly taken as 40 hours × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours. This calculator converts in either direction and shows every common pay period.
Formula
- Hourly = annual salary ÷ (hours per week × weeks per year)
- Annual = hourly × hours per week × weeks per year
Worked example
Using the starting values in the calculator above:
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Convert from | Annual salary |
| Amount | $60,000 |
| Hours per week | 40 |
| Paid weeks per year | 52 |
| Result | Value |
|---|---|
| Hourly | $28.85 |
| Annual | $60,000 |
| Monthly | $5,000 |
| Every two weeks | $2,308 |
| Weekly | $1,154 |
| Daily (5-day week) | $230.77 |
How to read the result
Salaried staff are usually paid for 52 weeks including holidays. For contractors, use the weeks you actually work, which is often 46 to 48.
Compare roles on total compensation, including benefits and bonuses, not hourly pay alone.
