You are offered 28 an hour. Is that better or worse than the 54,000 salary you have now? The comparison is harder than it looks once overtime, unpaid holiday and different working weeks come into it. The Hourly to Salary Converter does that arithmetic properly.
Short answer: The Hourly to Salary Converter is a free EizTools tool that turns an hourly rate into weekly, monthly and annual pay. Set your working hours, weeks and overtime rule, and it returns the equivalents.
What is Hourly to Salary Converter?
It converts pay between the ways employers quote it. Give it your rate and your usual hours, and the Hourly to Salary Converter returns the annual equivalent along with weekly and monthly figures, including overtime if your week runs long.
Hourly, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly
The quick version, rate times 2,080, assumes forty hours a week for fifty two weeks with no unpaid time off. That describes very few real jobs. Contractors take unpaid weeks. Part time roles run under thirty. Overtime pushes the total well past the simple figure. Each of those has a control in the panel.
What it accounts for
- Unpaid time off, which the simple multiplication ignores
- Overtime at 1.5x, 2x or a custom rule
- Part time and non standard weeks, including 37.5 hour contracts
What it will not know
- Your tax code, so take home is an estimate at best
- Benefits, pension contributions and paid holiday, which change the real value
- Local employment rules on how overtime must be paid
Work Schedule And Overtime Rule
| Setting | Choices | Where to start |
|---|---|---|
| Work Schedule | 40 hrs / 52 wks, 37.5 hrs / 52 wks, Part-time custom, With unpaid time off, Custom weeks per year | Whichever matches your contract exactly |
| Overtime Rule | No overtime, 1.5x over 40, 2x over 40, Double time over 60, Custom rule | 1.5x over 40 if you regularly work extra |
| Output Basis | All periods, Annual only, Monthly only, Weekly only, Gross and take-home | All periods for a full comparison |
The With unpaid time off option is the one contractors and agency workers should reach for. Two unpaid weeks removes a noticeable slice from the annual figure, and it is the difference between a rate that beats a salary offer and one that only appears to.
How Does Hourly to Salary Converter Work?
- Type the position: "28 an hour, usually 45 hours a week with overtime, show me the annual equivalent."
- Pick the AI model you want for the calculation.
- Pick the currency you are paid in, Work Schedule to 40 hrs / 52 wks, Overtime Rule to 1.5x over 40, Output Basis to All periods.
- Leave Output Detail on Normal and generate.
- Compare the annual figure against the salary you are weighing it against.
- Run it again with unpaid weeks included if the work is seasonal or contract based.
Note Compare like with like. A salaried role usually includes paid holiday, sick pay and a pension contribution. An hourly rate that matches on paper can be worth noticeably less once those are missing.
Who It Helps
- Anyone weighing an hourly offer against a salaried one
- Contractors setting a rate that has to cover unpaid weeks
- Part time workers converting a rate into a monthly budget figure
- Anyone preparing for a pay conversation who needs both numbers to hand
EizTools keeps every tool free and account free, each with its own controls and a choice of AI models. Once you know what the offer is worth, the Salary Negotiation Response tool helps with the reply, and the tool library covers the rest.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert an hourly rate to an annual salary?
Multiply the rate by your weekly hours and the number of paid weeks you work. The default assumption of forty hours across fifty two weeks overstates the total for anyone with unpaid time off.
Does the Hourly to Salary Converter show take home pay?
Set Output Basis to Gross and take-home and it will estimate, but it does not know your tax code or local rates. Treat the take home figure as indicative only.
Should overtime count in the comparison?
Only if it is reliable. Overtime that appears in busy months and vanishes in quiet ones inflates an annual figure you cannot count on when planning your monthly budget.
What about paid holiday?
Salaried roles usually include it, hourly ones often do not. Run the calculation with unpaid weeks to see the real gap, since that difference is frequently larger than the rate difference itself.
Comparing pay across formats is where good offers get accepted and bad ones get taken by mistake. Set the hours and weeks you actually work, include overtime only if it is dependable, and compare the annual figures rather than the headline rate.
