How it works
Hourly pay = annual pay ÷ (paid hours per week × paid weeks per year); a minute is that ÷ 60 and a second ÷ 3,600. A working day = hourly pay × weekly hours ÷ working days. “Around the clock” spreads the annual pay over every second of a 365-day year (31,536,000 seconds), including nights and weekends. Use pay before tax to compare with job offers, or take-home pay to see what really reaches your account.

FAQ
Why are paid weeks 52?
Paid holidays and leave are still paid, so a salaried worker is paid for 52 weeks. Freelancers paid only for weeks worked should enter the weeks they actually bill.
Before or after tax?
Either works. Before-tax pay matches job ads and contracts; after-tax pay shows what you can spend.
