How does this tool work?

This salary calculator converts compensation between hourly, weekly, monthly and annual amounts using your working time. It is a time-basis conversion, not a gross-to-net payroll calculation.

The calculator first converts the entered amount to an annual equivalent according to the selected period.

Hourly and weekly equivalents use the number of hours worked per week and weeks counted per year.

Average monthly pay is the annual equivalent divided by 12. At 35 hours per week and 52 weeks, the average is about 151.67 hours per month.

How to use this tool

  1. Choose the known period

    Select whether the entered amount is hourly, weekly, monthly or annual.

  2. Enter your compensation

    Enter the amount corresponding to that period.

  3. Check working time

    Adjust weekly hours and weeks per year if necessary.

  4. Compare equivalents

    Read the automatically calculated hourly, weekly, monthly and annual values.

Salary conversion formulas

Conversions depend on hours per week and weeks counted per year.

Annual salary from hourly pay

Annual = Hourly rate × Hours/week × Weeks/year

At €20/hour, 35 h/week and 52 weeks, the annual equivalent is €36,400.

Average monthly salary

Monthly = Annual salary / 12

This produces a regular monthly average.

Hourly rate from annual salary

Hourly = Annual salary / (Hours/week × Weeks/year)

Use the same time basis when comparing compensation.

This is not a payslip simulation: gross/net pay, contributions, leave, bonuses and overtime must be handled separately.

Why 151.67 hours per month at 35 h/week?

The monthly average comes from 35 hours × 52 weeks ÷ 12 months.

  • 35 × 52 = 1,820 h/year
  • 1,820 ÷ 12 ≈ 151.67 h/month

Gross, net and time conversion

Converting monthly pay to annual pay does not turn gross pay into net pay.

  • Conversion: change of time period
  • Gross/net: payroll rules and deductions

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert hourly pay to monthly salary?

Multiply the hourly rate by hours per week and weeks per year, then divide by 12.

Why is 151.67 hours per month used for 35 hours per week?

Because 35 hours × 52 weeks equals 1,820 hours per year, or about 151.67 hours per month on average.

How do I convert monthly salary to hourly pay?

Multiply monthly salary by 12, then divide by the annual hours for your working schedule.

Does this calculate net salary?

No. It only converts compensation from one time period to another and does not calculate contributions or deductions.

Must I use 52 weeks per year?

52 weeks is a common annualized basis. If your activity covers fewer weeks, change this assumption in the advanced options.

How do I account for a 13th-month payment?

The tool spreads the annual salary over 12 months. If you receive a 13th-month payment, first calculate the annual salary (for example €2,500 × 13 = €32,500) and enter it as an annual amount: the monthly figure shown is then an average spread over 12 months.
