Hourly to Salary Calculator
Free hourly to salary calculator: convert an hourly rate to weekly, monthly, and annual pay, or a salary back to an hourly rate.
Enter the numbers you know
Choose a direction, then enter a rate or a salary and how many hours and weeks you work.
What the rate is worth
Based on 2,080 paid hours per year. Figures are gross, before tax and deductions.
Accounts for time off
Fewer paid weeks lowers the annual figure. Set weeks per year to match your unpaid time off.
Works both ways
Switch direction anytime to check an offer from either side: what a rate is worth per year, or what a salary is per hour.
Gross, not take-home
This is gross pay before tax and deductions, which vary by country and contract.
How the conversion works
Hours per week multiplied by paid weeks per year gives your paid hours per year. An hourly rate times those hours is the annual salary; a salary divided by those hours is the hourly rate. Weekly and monthly figures follow from there.
Once you are working, the harder question is how many hours actually went where. Sandtime.io records that as you go, so rates, budgets, and invoices rest on real hours rather than estimates.
Rate and salary questions
How is the monthly figure worked out?
Annual pay divided by twelve, so every month shows the same figure. That is the planning number, not a payslip: months with three pay dates or unpaid leave will not match it.
Should I use 52 weeks or fewer?
Set weeks a year to what you are actually paid for. 52 treats paid holiday as paid time, which is right for a salaried job. A contractor who takes six unpaid weeks should enter 46, and the hourly rate needed will rise accordingly.
Is this gross or take-home pay?
Gross, before tax and deductions. What lands in an account depends on rates, allowances, and contributions that differ by country and by person.
Can I use this to set a freelance rate?
No. Converting a salary to an hourly rate this way ignores employer taxes, benefits, equipment, insurance, and the unpaid hours a freelancer spends selling and invoicing. A rate built only on this number sets a business up to lose money.
Base pay decisions on real hours
Sandtime.io turns tracked time into clear reports on cost, revenue, and utilization, so rates and budgets reflect the work. Free for unlimited users, without surveillance.
