What this hourly to annual salary does

Hourly to Annual Salary multiplies your hourly rate by hours per week and paid weeks per year, then shows weekly, monthly and annual gross figures. Setting weeks below 52 accounts for unpaid leave, seasonal work or contract gaps.

These are gross amounts before income tax, social contributions, pension and other deductions. Take-home pay will be lower, and overtime, bonuses and shift premiums are not included unless you bake them into the rate or hours. Monthly figures divide the annual total by twelve.

Why use it

  • Compare an hourly contract with a salaried offer.
  • See how unpaid weeks change annual income.
  • Estimate gross monthly income for budgeting.

  2. 2Enter hours per week.

Frequently asked questions

Does it include tax?
No. All figures are gross. Use your tax authority's calculator or payslip for net pay.
How is the monthly figure calculated?
Annual gross divided by twelve, not by the number of months actually worked.
Should I use 52 weeks?
Only if you are paid for all 52. Many employees take unpaid leave or start mid-year, so a lower number is often more realistic.
Can I include a bonus?
Add it to the annual figure yourself; the converter only uses the hourly rate.
