Understanding Your Pay

Conversion Logic

The standard conversion from annual salary to hourly wage relies on the total number of work hours in a year. For a full-time employee, this is typically calculated as:

40 hours/week × 52 weeks/year = 2,080 hours/year

To find the hourly rate, we simply divide the gross annual salary by these total annual hours. If your schedule differs, adjusting the hours or weeks will provide a more precise calculation.

The 2,080 Hour Rule

Most HR departments use 2,080 hours as the baseline for budgeting and payroll. This assumes no unpaid time off. If you receive paid holidays and vacation, your hourly rate remains constant.

  • Monthly: Annual salary divided by 12.
  • Bi-Weekly: Annual salary divided by 26 pay periods.
  • Weekly: Annual salary divided by 52.
  • Daily: Weekly salary divided by days worked per week.
