How do I calculate my annual salary from my hourly rate in Ontario?
Calculating an annual salary from an hourly rate is simple. Just insert the average number of hours worked per week, the number of weeks of vacation and number of holidays taken, and the hourly wage. The tool will convert that hourly wage into an annual salary.
The formula for calculating your annual salary is simple:
Good to know
Annual salary = average hours per week × hourly rate × (52 weeks minus weeks of vacation - weeks of holidays)
For example, imagine someone earns $15 per hour in Ontario, works an average of 35 hours per week and has a total of 4 weeks of vacation and holidays. They would earn $25,200 per year.
Here is the math:
- 35 hours × $15 per hour = $525 per week.
- $525 per week × 48 weeks* = $25,200 per year.
*48 weeks assumes that the worker took a combined 4 weeks of vacation and holidays.
Note that this is a simplified formula that does not take into account overtime pay or paid vacation time. Based on those factors, which vary from job to job, an actual annual salary may be slightly different from this number.

There is a limit of 48 hours of work per week for most industries. Employees are also entitled to at least one full day of rest per seven-day period. Any hours beyond the standard 40 are considered overtime. They must be compensated at least 1.5 times the employee’s regular hourly rate. Exceptions apply for some jobs, including managers, doctors, lawyers, dentists, engineers and architects.
