How hourly pay becomes a salary

The calculator then takes off tax and National Insurance to show what you keep.
| Hourly rate | Yearly pay |
|---|---|
| £12 an hour | £23,400 |
| £15 an hour | £29,250 |
| £18 an hour | £35,100 |
| £20 an hour | £39,000 |
| £25 an hour | £48,750 |
Part-time and unpaid breaks
Use the hours you are paid for, not the hours you are at work. If lunch is unpaid, leave it out of your weekly hours. Holiday pay is already part of the 52 weeks.
