Salary Calc

Salary conversions use simple arithmetic based on hours per week and weeks per year. Yearly = Hourly x Hours/Week x Weeks/Year. Monthly = Yearly / 12. Biweekly = Yearly / 26. Weekly = Yearly / Weeks/Year. Daily = Weekly / 5 (assuming 5 working days). Hourly = Daily / (Hours/Week / 5).

In most countries, full-time work is defined as 35-40 hours per week. In the US, the Fair Labor Standards Act considers 40 hours per week as the standard. Some countries define full-time as 35 hours (France) or 38 hours (Belgium). Part-time is generally anything less than full-time.

Gross salary is the total amount before any deductions. Net salary (take-home pay) is what you receive after subtracting taxes, social security, health insurance, retirement contributions, and other deductions. This calculator shows gross amounts only.

In the US, overtime is typically paid at 1.5x the regular hourly rate for hours worked beyond 40 per week. Some states and roles have different rules. Salaried employees exempt from overtime (FLSA exempt) are not entitled to overtime pay regardless of hours worked.

Employee benefits (health insurance, retirement contributions, paid time off, etc.) typically add 20-40% to the base salary value. For example, a $50,000 salary with $15,000 in benefits has a total compensation value of $65,000. Consider benefits when comparing job offers.
