Salary to Hourly Calculator

Job posts often list annual salary while you think in hourly terms—or the reverse. This divides annual pay by paid hours per year (weeks × hours).

Salary → hourly

How this is calculated

Hourly = annual ÷ (hours per week × work weeks per year). Default is 40 hours × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours.

Example: $62,400 ÷ 2,080 = $30.00/hr.

Use this tool for

  • Comparing a salaried offer to a contract hourly.
  • Accounting for unpaid weeks off by lowering the “weeks” field.
  • Part-time schedules with fewer than 40 hours.

Common questions

Does this include PTO?

If you are paid for vacation weeks, keep weeks at 52 (or your employer’s paid-week count). If unpaid summer weeks exist, reduce work weeks.

Gross or net?

Enter gross for gross hourly; enter net take-home only if you want a rough net hourly (not the same as employer cost).
