How to convert hourly pay to a salary

Annual salary = hourly rate × hours per week × 52

Then the normal tax brackets apply. Part-time workers on fewer hours often fall in the 15% bracket for much of their income, so they keep a bigger share of each hour.

Minimum wage

The national minimum wage is set each year by the Fair Work Commission and changes on 1 July. Enter the current rate for your award to see your take-home pay; award rates for your industry are listed on the Fair Work Ombudsman website.
