Convert your hourly wage 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 pay figures, including any overtime pay at a higher rate. It's useful for hourly workers who want to see what their pay translates to on an annual basis, or for comparing an hourly job offer to a salaried position quoted as an annual figure.
This calculator first computes weekly pay by combining regular hours at your base rate with any overtime hours at the overtime multiplier rate, then scales that weekly figure to other time periods.
Formula: Weekly Pay = (Regular Hours × Hourly Rate) + (Overtime Hours × Hourly Rate × Overtime Multiplier). Annual Pay = Weekly Pay × Paid Weeks per Year. Monthly Pay = Annual Pay ÷ 12. Daily Pay = Weekly Pay ÷ 5.
Example: At a $25 hourly rate, working 40 regular hours per week with no overtime, for 52 paid weeks per year, weekly pay is $1,000, monthly pay is roughly $4,333, and annual salary is $52,000. (Note: all figures in this example are for illustration purposes only and represent gross pay before taxes and deductions.)
Under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), most non-exempt hourly employees in the US are entitled to overtime pay — typically 1.5x their regular rate ("time and a half") — for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek (example multiplier — some states have additional or different overtime rules, such as daily overtime thresholds). Whether you're classified as "exempt" or "non-exempt" from overtime depends on your job duties and salary level under federal and state law. This calculator shows gross pay (before taxes) — for an estimate of take-home pay after federal, state, and FICA taxes, use a paycheck calculator (example overtime rules used in this calculator — verify your specific state's overtime requirements).
This calculator shows gross pay — your earnings before federal income tax, state income tax (if applicable), and FICA taxes (Social Security and Medicare) are withheld. Your actual take-home pay will be lower.
Under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), most non-exempt hourly employees must be paid at least 1.5 times their regular rate ("time and a half") for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek (example multiplier — verify your state's specific rules, as some states have additional overtime requirements).
It's the number of weeks you actually receive pay for in a year — typically 52 for full-time employees with paid time off, but fewer if you take unpaid leave or work seasonally. Reducing this number reduces your annual pay estimate accordingly.
You can work backward from the annual figure: divide the annual salary by the paid weeks per year to get weekly pay, then divide weekly pay by your regular hours per week to estimate the equivalent hourly rate.
No. While the federal FLSA sets a baseline (overtime after 40 hours per week for non-exempt employees), some states have additional rules, such as requiring overtime after 8 hours worked in a single day. Check your specific state's labor laws.
Because most months have slightly more than 4 weeks (52 weeks ÷ 12 months ≈ 4.33 weeks per month), this calculator divides annual pay by 12 to get a more accurate monthly figure rather than multiplying weekly pay by exactly 4.
