Salary to Hourly Calculator
Enter your salary and how many hours you work per week to see your hourly rate. The tool also converts to daily, weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, monthly and quarterly pay.
How to Convert Salary to Hourly
Divide your annual salary by the hours you work in a year. Full-time is 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, or 2,080 hours.
Hourly rate = annual salary / (hours per week x weeks per year)
Example: $50,000 / 2,080 = $24.04 an hour.

Adjusting for Vacation, Holidays and Unpaid Time
A salary covers paid holidays and vacation, so the standard formula gives your rate over all paid weeks. If you want your rate on the hours you actually work, use the days you do not work box in the calculator. With 15 non-working days at 8 hours each, a $50,000 salary works out to $50,000 / (2,080 - 120) = $25.51 an hour on hours actually worked.
Part-Time and Overtime Work
For a part-time schedule, use your real weekly hours. $40,000 a year at 30 hours a week is $40,000 / (30 x 52) = $25.64 an hour. Hourly workers who earn overtime should use the overtime paycheck calculator.
Salary vs Hourly Pay
| Salaried | Hourly | |
|---|---|---|
| Pay stays the same each period | Usually yes | Varies with hours |
| Overtime pay | Only if non-exempt | Required above 40 hours a week for most workers |
| Paid time off | Often included | Depends on the employer |
| Income predictability | Higher | Lower |
Federal law requires overtime for non-exempt employees. The federal exempt salary threshold is $684 a week ($35,568 a year), and duties also matter, so being salaried does not automatically exclude overtime.
