Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert salary to hourly in the UK?
To calculate your hourly rate manually, divide your annual salary by the number of weeks you work (usually 52), then divide that result by your weekly hours.
Is 37.5 hours full-time in the UK?
Yes, many UK employment contracts specify 37.5 hours per week (e.g., 9am to 5:30pm with an hour unpaid lunch). 40 hours is also common.
Does this calculator include tax?
Yes, this tool now calculates UK Income Tax and displays both gross and net pay. However, it does NOT include National Insurance, pension contributions, student loans, or other deductions.
Why might your Personal Allowance be lower?
If your income exceeds £100,000, your Personal Allowance is reduced by £1 for every £2 over this threshold. This means the Personal Allowance becomes £0 at £125,140 and above.
What if I work 40 hours per week?
Simply change the "Hours per Week" field to 40. The calculator updates instantly to show your new rate.
How do unpaid breaks affect pay?
If your breaks are unpaid, do not include them in your "Hours per Week". For example, if you are at work for 40 hours but have 1 hour unpaid break daily (5 hours total), enter 35 hours.
Can I use this for part-time work?
Absolutely. Just enter your pro-rated annual salary and the actual number of hours you work per week to see your hourly equivalent.
