Frequently Asked Questions
How many hours are in a work year?▼
A standard 40-hour week for 52 weeks is 2,080 hours, the usual base for full-time salary conversion.
Does the conversion include taxes?▼
No. It shows gross pay. Taxes and deductions reduce take-home pay below the converted amount.
How does overtime affect it?▼
Eligible overtime is generally paid at 1.5x, so actual annual pay can exceed the simple conversion.
