Salary to hourly calculator
Updated November 7, 2026. Runs entirely in your browser; nothing you type is sent anywhere.
Enter an annual salary, your hours per week, and paid weeks per year. You'll see the hourly rate plus monthly, biweekly, and weekly gross pay, so you can compare a salaried offer with an hourly one. This is arithmetic only, not financial advice.
How to use the number
- Comparing two offers? Convert both to an hourly rate using the hours each job really expects.
- Going the other way? Use the free hourly to salary calculator.
- For pay after tax, try the take-home pay calculator; for benefits, the total compensation calculator.
When the number is lower than it should be
Seeing your real hourly rate is often the moment people decide to ask for more. Asking is the hard part. The Offer Kit ($29) gives word-for-word lines for countering an offer and handling pushback, plus Call Mode for the live conversation. One-time purchase, 14-day refund.
How do I convert an annual salary to an hourly rate?
Hourly rate = annual salary ÷ (hours per week × paid weeks per year). With a standard 40-hour week and 52 paid weeks, that is salary ÷ 2,080. This page does that arithmetic only.
Why does it ask for weeks worked?
If you are paid for 52 weeks, use 52. If you want to see your rate per hour actually worked after unpaid time off, enter fewer weeks. The result changes because the same salary is spread over fewer hours.
Does this include taxes or benefits?
No. It converts gross base pay only. For pay after tax, see the take-home pay calculator; for benefits, see the total compensation calculator.
Is this financial advice?
No. It is simple arithmetic on the numbers you enter, not tax, legal, or financial advice.
