Formulas
Salary → Hourly: divide annual salary by total worked hours (hours/week × weeks/year). The common full-time shortcut uses 2,080 hours (40 × 52). Hourly → Salary: rate × hours/week × weeks/year. Hours worked above 40/week may qualify for FLSA overtime (1.5×), which is not included here.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert a salary to an hourly rate?
Divide the annual salary by total worked hours. Using a standard 40-hour week over 52 weeks, that's salary ÷ 2,080. If your schedule differs, divide by hours/week × weeks/year for an accurate figure.
How do I convert an hourly rate to a salary?
Multiply the hourly rate by hours per week and by weeks per year (rate × hours × weeks). For a standard full-time schedule that's rate × 2,080.
Does this include overtime?
No. This is a straight-time conversion. Hours over 40/week typically earn FLSA overtime at 1.5×, which would raise actual earnings above the converted salary — see our Overtime Calculator.
