Compare Salaries and Hourly Rates Fairly
The 2,080-Hour Benchmark and Why It Lies a Little
Most salary-to-hourly conversions divide by 2,080 hours—40 hours a week for 52 weeks. It is a handy benchmark, but full-time employees rarely work all 52 weeks for pay once vacation, holidays and sick time are counted. This calculator puts the weekly hours and paid weeks in your hands so the comparison reflects your real schedule.
Freelancers: Compare Contracts with Job Offers
When a freelance contract quotes $70 an hour and a job offer says $130,000, they are not directly comparable: freelancers also cover their own taxes, benefits, unpaid downtime and business costs. Convert the salary to an hourly figure first, then use the Freelancer Hourly Rate Calculator to see what rate you genuinely need to charge.
Adjust for Unpaid Time Off
Reduce the paid-weeks field to see what happens when you take unpaid time. A $90,000 salary over 48 paid weeks needs a higher hourly rate than the same salary over 52 weeks—the converter makes that trade-off visible in both directions.
How to Use This Calculator
Set your weekly hours and paid weeks once, then read both panels: enter an annual salary to see its hourly, weekly and monthly equivalents, and enter an hourly rate to see the annual figure. Figures are gross and update live as you type.
