Everything you need to know about salary conversions, overtime, and paycheck intervals.
How do you calculate salary to hourly? +
To convert an annual gross salary into an hourly wage rate, divide the salary by 2,080 hours (based on a 40-hour work week across 52 weeks). For example, a $65,000 annual salary divided by 2,080 equals $31.25 per hour.
How many working hours are in a year? +
A standard full-time work year consists of 2,080 hours (40 hours per week × 52 weeks). If your employer provides 2 weeks of unpaid vacation per year (50 weeks worked), your work year equals 2,000 hours.
What is the difference between bi-weekly and semi-monthly pay? +
Bi-weekly pay is distributed every two weeks, which results in 26 paychecks per year (with two months having 3 paychecks). Semi-monthly pay is distributed twice per month (typically on the 1st and 15th), resulting in 24 paychecks per year.
How does overtime pay work? +
Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), non-exempt employees must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek at a rate not less than time and one-half (1.5x) their regular rate of pay. Double-time (2.0x) is frequently paid on Sundays or recognized federal/provincial statutory holidays.
