Frequently Asked Questions

How many hours is full-time work in Australia?
Full-time work in Australia is 38 hours per week under the National Employment Standards (NES). This equates to 1,976 hours per year (38 × 52 weeks).
How do I convert my hourly rate to annual salary?
Multiply your hourly rate by 38 (standard weekly hours) then by 52 (weeks per year). For example, $35/hour × 38 × 52 = $69,160 per year before tax.
Does my employer have to pay super on top of my salary?
Yes, employers must pay superannuation guarantee (SG) at 12% on top of your ordinary time earnings. This is in addition to your salary, not deducted from it, unless your contract specifies a salary-inclusive-of-super package.

What is Pay?

A pay calculator converts between different pay periods (hourly, weekly, fortnightly, monthly, annual) and shows your take-home pay after income tax, Medicare levy, and super contributions.

How this calculator works

Enter your pay in any period and this calculator converts it to all others based on the standard Australian 38-hour work week (National Employment Standards). It then calculates your income tax using 2025-26 ATO brackets, subtracts the Medicare levy (2%), applies LITO if eligible, and shows your net pay. The full conversion table shows gross, tax, net, and super for every pay period — from hourly to annual.
