Salary Calculator

Convert any pay period to any other. Enter salary as annual, monthly, hourly, or weekly. Hours per year differ by country — the same annual figure is a different hourly rate in London than in Dallas.

In short

Use this to convert gross pay between periods. Skip it for take-home tax. A $75,000 annual salary equals $6,250/month, $2,885 bi-weekly, $1,442 weekly, or $36.06/hour on a US/Canada 40-hour week × 52 weeks (2,080 hours). UK and German years are shorter because of statutory holiday, so the same annual salary is a higher hourly rate.

Minimum wage snapshot below

💡 Convert any salary amount across all pay periods. US standard: 40 hrs/week, 52 weeks. UK/EU: varies (statutory minimum holiday differs by country).

Why does hourly rate change by country for the same salary?

Annual ÷ hours. The US often quotes 2,080 hours. The UK Working Time baseline and 28 days’ statutory leave shrink the year. Germany’s typical 30 days plus public holidays shrink it further. Always ask whether the offer is 37.5 or 40 hours, and whether holiday is paid — that is the gap the hourly-to-salary calculator is for.

What is minimum wage by country (2026)?

Federal or national floors. US states and Canadian provinces are often higher. This is not take-home pay.

FAQ

Salary conversion questions

How do you convert annual salary to hourly wage? ▾
Divide annual salary by total work hours per year. For a standard US/Canada 40-hour week × 52 weeks = 2,080 hours. A $75,000 salary ÷ 2,080 = $36.06/hour. In the UK, a £35,000 salary with 37.5 hours/week × 52 weeks = 1,950 hours gives £17.95/hour.
How many working hours are in a year in different countries? ▾
US/Canada: ~2,080 hours (40 hrs × 52 weeks). UK: ~1,800–1,950 hours (37.5–40 hrs, minus 28 days statutory holiday). Germany: ~1,650 hours (38 hrs, minus 30 days holiday). Australia: ~1,816 hours (38 hrs × 52, minus statutory leave). OECD average is around 1,716 hours annually.
What is minimum wage in the US, UK, and Australia? ▾
As of 2026: US federal minimum wage is $7.25/hour (many states higher, California $16.90/hour). UK National Living Wage (21+): £12.71 (NLW, 21+). Australia national minimum wage: $24.95 AUD/hour. Germany: €13.90/hour. France: €12.02 (SMIC).
Is salary conversion the same as take-home pay? ▾
No. This page only splits gross pay across periods. Tax, National Insurance, FICA, and pension come after. Open the paycheck calculator or income tax calculator for net pay.
How do you convert hourly pay to annual salary? ▾
Hourly rate × hours per week × 52. US $25/hour × 40 × 52 = $52,000. If the role is 37.5 hours (common in the UK), multiply by 1,950 instead of 2,080. Unpaid leave reduces the true annual figure — use the hourly-to-salary calculator when PTO is unpaid.
Who should skip this salary calculator? ▾
Skip it if you need net pay after tax, overtime multiples, or a contractor day-rate with employer NI. Use paycheck, overtime, or self-employment tax instead. This tool is the conversion layer only.

Sources & Methodology

Period conversions divide or multiply gross pay by hours or pay periods. Hours-per-year are typical full-time norms, not a legal maximum. Minimum wages are national/federal floors as of the snapshot year.
