Want take-home pay after tax? Try the Canada Take-Home Pay Calculator
This free Canada hourly to salary calculator converts any hourly wage into an annual salary, monthly pay, weekly earnings, and daily rate. It is designed for people who are paid by the hour and want to understand what their wage equals as a yearly income — for budgeting, comparing a salaried job offer, or calculating earnings for a loan or rental application.
Key uses include comparing an hourly contract role against a salaried position, estimating what a pay raise means annually, calculating overtime earnings on top of a base hourly rate, or finding out how part-time hours affect yearly income.
The calculator supports both standard 40-hour and 37.5-hour full-time schedules, as well as custom weekly hours for part-time and shift workers. Results show gross (before-tax) figures across all pay periods simultaneously.
This calculator converts from an hourly rate to an annual salary. For the reverse — starting from an annual salary to find an hourly rate — use the annual salary to hourly calculator. For net pay after CPP, EI, and income tax, use the Canada Take-Home Pay Calculator.
The formula to calculate an annual salary from an hourly wage in Canada is:
For most full-time Canadian employees, the standard is either 40 hours per week (2,080 hours per year) or 37.5 hours per week (1,950 hours per year). Using the total annual hours is an equivalent approach: multiply your hourly rate by 2,080 for a 40-hour week, or by 1,950 for a 37.5-hour week.
Weekly pay is simply your hourly rate multiplied by your hours worked that week. At $30/hour for 40 hours, weekly gross pay is $1,200. For overtime beyond standard hours, Canadian employment standards generally require time-and-a-half (1.5× the regular rate) for hours over the weekly threshold, which varies by province — Ontario's threshold is 44 hours per week, Alberta's is 8 hours per day or 44 hours per week.
Monthly pay is calculated by dividing the annual salary by 12. Because months have different numbers of working days, the cleanest approach is to annualise first (hourly × weekly hours × 52), then divide by 12. For $30/hour at 40 hours per week: $62,400 ÷ 12 = $5,200 per month. This is the same method used by most Canadian payroll systems for salaried-equivalent calculations.
For part-time work, replace 40 with your actual weekly hours. At $20/hour working 25 hours per week: $20 × 25 × 52 = $26,000 per year, or $2,166.67 per month. The calculator above accepts any weekly hours figure for this purpose.
The table below shows common Canadian hourly rates converted to annual salary, monthly pay, and weekly earnings at both 40 hours/week and 37.5 hours/week. All figures are gross before tax, CPP, and EI deductions.

The formula to convert an hourly wage to an annual salary is the same across all Canadian provinces. The gross annual salary for any hourly rate depends only on weekly hours, not location. However, minimum wage rates and average hourly pay differ significantly by province.
Ontario's minimum wage is approximately $17.20/hour in 2026, equal to $35,776 per year at 40 hours per week. Common Ontario hourly wage conversions: $25/hour = $52,000/year, $30/hour = $62,400/year, $38/hour = $79,040/year, $40/hour = $83,200/year. For Ontario net pay after provincial tax and payroll deductions, use the Ontario Take-Home Pay Calculator.
Alberta's minimum wage is $15.00/hour in 2026, equal to $31,200/year at 40 hours per week. Alberta has Canada's lowest flat provincial tax rate (10%), which means a $38/hour wage ($79,040/year) results in higher take-home pay in Alberta than in most other provinces. See the Alberta Take-Home Pay Calculator for the net figure.
BC has one of Canada's higher minimum wages at approximately $17.40/hour in 2026, equal to $36,192/year at 40 hours per week. Common BC conversions: $25/hour = $52,000/year, $32/hour = $66,560/year, $40/hour = $83,200/year. BC has a progressive provincial tax structure — use the BC Take-Home Pay Calculator for after-tax estimates.
The average hourly wage for full-time Canadian employees is approximately $35–$38 per hour in 2026, equivalent to roughly $72,800–$79,040 per year at 40 hours per week. Average wages are higher in Alberta, Ontario, and BC, and lower in Atlantic Canada and Quebec. Skilled trades, healthcare, technology, and management roles typically pay $40–$80+ per hour. Entry-level and service roles are typically closer to minimum wage rates.
Different Canadian professions are often paid hourly or quoted an hourly rate for contract work. Here is how common hourly rates for Canadian occupations translate to annual salaries at 40 hours per week:

Multiply your hourly wage by your weekly hours, then multiply by 52 weeks. Formula: annual salary = hourly rate × weekly hours × 52. Example: $30/hour × 40 hours × 52 weeks = $62,400 per year. The calculator above does this automatically and also shows monthly, weekly, and daily breakdowns.
$38 per hour at 40 hours per week equals $79,040 per year before tax ($38 × 40 × 52). At 37.5 hours per week, the annual equivalent is $74,100. Monthly gross at 40 hours is approximately $6,587.
$27 per hour at 40 hours per week equals $56,160 per year before tax ($27 × 40 × 52). At 37.5 hours per week, the annual equivalent is $52,650. Monthly gross at 40 hours is approximately $4,680.
$25 per hour at 40 hours per week equals $52,000 per year before tax ($25 × 40 × 52). At 37.5 hours per week, the annual equivalent is $48,750. Monthly gross at 40 hours is approximately $4,333.
$40 per hour at 40 hours per week equals $83,200 per year before tax ($40 × 40 × 52). At 37.5 hours per week, the annual equivalent is $78,000. Monthly gross at 40 hours is approximately $6,933.
Weekly gross pay = hourly rate × hours worked that week. At $30/hour for 40 hours, weekly pay is $1,200. For overtime hours, Canadian law typically requires 1.5× the regular rate for hours exceeding the provincial threshold (44 hours/week in Ontario, 44 hours/week in Alberta). The calculator shows standard weekly pay — for overtime calculations, multiply the overtime hours by 1.5× your hourly rate and add to the standard figure.
Yes. The hourly-to-salary formula is identical across all Canadian provinces — it depends only on your hourly rate and weekly hours. For province-specific take-home pay after federal and provincial income tax, CPP, and EI, use the Take-Home Pay Calculator and select your province.
The average hourly wage for full-time Canadian employees is approximately $35–$38 per hour in 2026 — equivalent to around $72,800–$79,040 per year at 40 hours per week. Average wages are higher in Alberta, BC, and Ontario. The federal minimum wage is $17.30/hour in 2026, while provincial minimums range from $15.00/hour (Alberta, Saskatchewan) to approximately $17.40/hour (British Columbia).
This calculator starts with an hourly wage and converts it to annual, monthly, and weekly salary equivalents. The annual salary to hourly calculator works in reverse — starting with an annual salary and finding the hourly rate. If you are paid by the hour and want to know your annual income, use this page. If you have an annual salary and want the hourly rate, use the salary to hourly page. For people paid monthly wanting an hourly rate, the monthly to hourly calculator is the right tool.
Part-time hours reduce the annual equivalent proportionally. At $25/hour: 40 hours/week = $52,000/year, but 20 hours/week = $26,000/year, and 30 hours/week = $39,000/year. Enter your actual weekly hours in the calculator above for an accurate part-time annual salary estimate.
