How to Convert Hourly Rate to Annual Salary

To convert an hourly rate to an annual salary, multiply your hourly rate by the number of hours you work per week, then multiply by 52 (weeks in a year). For example, if you earn £20/hour and work 37.5 hours/week:

£20 × 37.5 hours × 52 weeks = £39,000 per year

Our calculator does this automatically — just select "Hourly" as your pay frequency and enter your hourly rate.
