Salary to Hourly Calculator
The hourly rate depends on how many weeks you actually work — holidays and leave change it.
Why the rate looks low
A 2.4 million salary over 45 hours × 48 weeks is about 1,111 per hour — not 2.4m ÷ 2,080, which assumes 40-hour weeks and no leave.
Use it for comparisons
Freelance rates must cover unpaid admin time, so divide by billable hours, not total hours.
Should I use 52 weeks?
Only if you are paid for every week including holidays.
How do I price freelancing?
Divide by billable hours (often 60–70% of total) and add overheads.
