How to Convert Hourly Rate to Annual Salary

The formula is simple: Hourly Rate × Hours per Week × Weeks per Year = Annual Salary.

For a standard full-time employee working 37.5 hours per week, 52 weeks per year:

£15.00/hr × 37.5 hours × 52 weeks = £29,250/year

To reverse it: £29,250 ÷ 1,950 hours = £15.00/hr

If you receive paid annual leave (most employees get 28 days including bank holidays), use 52 weeks — your salary already covers holiday. If your leave is unpaid, subtract those weeks (e.g., 48 weeks for 4 weeks unpaid leave).

Part-Time Workers

If you work part-time, adjust the Hours per week in the calculator. Common part-time patterns:

  • 3 days/week (22.5 hours): £15/hr = £17,550/year
  • 4 days/week (30 hours): £15/hr = £23,400/year
  • School hours (25 hours, 39 weeks): £15/hr = £14,625/year

Part-time workers benefit from the Personal Allowance (£12,570) just like full-time workers. If your annual income is below this threshold, you pay no income tax at all.

Common Questions

52 weeks or fewer?

Use 52 if you get paid holiday. If your leave is unpaid, subtract the holiday weeks (e.g., 48 weeks for 4 weeks unpaid).

Does overtime count?

If your overtime is regular, include the extra hours in "Hours per week". If it's occasional, use your standard hours here and check our Bonus Calculator for one-off payments.

What about zero-hour contracts?

Enter your typical weekly hours. Since hours vary, check with different values to see the range of possible earnings.
