Understanding UK pay structures
Full-time is typically 35-40 hours per week. The most common is 37.5 hours (7.5 hours per day, Monday-Friday). Use this to convert salary to hourly rate.
When converting salary to hourly, you can use 52 weeks (full year) or account for unpaid leave. For example, use 47 weeks if employee has 5 weeks unpaid leave.
These calculators show gross pay (before tax and NI). Take-home pay is roughly 75-80% of gross for typical UK salaries after tax, NI, and pension.
After converting salary to hourly, check it meets National Minimum Wage for employee's age. As of April 2024: £11.44 (21+), £8.60 (18-20), £6.40 (under 18).
UK salaries include paid holiday (5.6 weeks minimum). When calculating hourly rate, this holiday pay is built into the annual salary figure.
