Compare pay on the same basis
Job offers and rates come in different forms — an hourly wage, a monthly salary, an annual package. To compare them fairly you need them on the same basis. This calculator converts any pay figure into hourly, weekly, monthly and yearly amounts using your working hours, so you can line up offers side by side.
How it works
Enter an amount and say whether it's per hour, month or year, then set your hours per week and working weeks per year. The calculator finds your annual pay and divides it down into the other periods. This is gross pay — before tax and deductions — which is the figure most offers quote.
Tips
- Use your real working weeks (e.g. 48 if you take unpaid leave).
- Remember results are gross, before tax.
- For take-home pay, use the Income Tax calculator.
- Overtime and bonuses aren't included unless you add them.
