Convert your hourly pay rate into daily, weekly, monthly, and annual salary, including overtime pay.
This salary calculator converts an hourly pay rate into daily, weekly, monthly, and annual gross salary figures, including any regular overtime hours paid at a higher rate. It's useful for comparing hourly-paid roles against salaried roles, working out your annual income from a zero-hours or variable-hours contract, or estimating the effect of taking on extra overtime.
This calculator multiplies your hourly rate by your hours to get weekly pay, then scales that up (or down) to daily, monthly, and annual figures based on the number of paid weeks per year. Overtime hours are paid at your hourly rate multiplied by the overtime multiplier, and are calculated and shown separately from your regular pay.
Formula: Regular Weekly Pay = Hourly Rate × Regular Hours. Overtime Weekly Pay = Hourly Rate × Overtime Multiplier × Overtime Hours. Weekly Pay = Regular Weekly Pay + Overtime Weekly Pay. Daily Pay = Weekly Pay ÷ 5. Annual Pay = Weekly Pay × Paid Weeks per Year. Monthly Pay = Annual Pay ÷ 12.
Example: At a £15/hour rate, working 37.5 regular hours per week with no overtime, over 52 paid weeks per year, weekly pay is £562.50, daily pay is £112.50, monthly pay is £2,437.50, and annual pay is £29,250. If 5 hours of overtime at 1.5x were added each week, overtime pay would add £112.50/week, bringing weekly pay to £675 and annual pay to £35,100. (Note: all figures shown are gross pay before tax and National Insurance.)
This calculator shows gross pay — the amount before Income Tax, National Insurance, and any pension contributions or other deductions are taken out. To estimate your take-home (net) pay after these deductions, use the Take-Home Pay Calculator with your annual figure from this calculator. The UK National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage set a legal floor on hourly pay rates, which vary by age band and are updated each April — check the current rates if you're unsure whether a given hourly rate meets the legal minimum for your age group. Overtime pay isn't a legal requirement in the UK (unless specified in your contract), but many employers offer enhanced rates (such as time and a half or double time) for hours worked beyond your standard contracted hours, particularly for shift work, weekends, or bank holidays.
This calculator shows gross pay — your earnings before Income Tax, National Insurance, and pension contributions are deducted. To estimate your take-home (net) pay, enter your annual figure from this calculator into the Take-Home Pay Calculator.
This calculator assumes a standard 5-day working week, so daily pay is simply your weekly pay divided by 5. If you work a different number of days per week, this daily figure may not accurately reflect your actual pay per day worked.
Overtime pay isn't a legal requirement in the UK unless it's specified in your employment contract. Many employers offer enhanced rates for overtime (such as time and a half or double time) as a matter of policy or contractual agreement — check your contract or speak to your employer to confirm what applies to you.
Reduce the "paid weeks per year" figure to reflect any unpaid leave. For example, if you take 2 weeks of unpaid leave per year, enter 50 instead of 52. Note that statutory paid holiday entitlement (usually 5.6 weeks for full-time workers) is generally already included in a standard salary, so this adjustment is mainly for genuinely unpaid time off.
The UK National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage set minimum hourly rates that vary by age band and are updated each April. Check the current government rates for your age group to confirm whether a given hourly rate meets the legal minimum.
The overtime multiplier is how much more than your normal hourly rate you're paid for overtime hours — for example, a multiplier of 1.5 means "time and a half" (1.5 times your normal rate), and a multiplier of 2 means "double time." Enter 1 if overtime is paid at your normal rate, or 0 overtime hours if not applicable.
