How to read this estimate

The 52-week estimate is a consistent benchmark. If some weeks are unpaid, a second schedule gives a more realistic gross-pay planning figure.

At $29 per hour, each unpaid 40-hour week reduces gross annual pay by $1,160.

The standard $60,320 annual estimate includes 52 paid weeks. With two unpaid weeks off, the same rate produces $58,000. A 30-hour week over 52 weeks instead produces $45,240. Use the scenario that matches your paid schedule. Paid vacation should stay in the weeks count, and overtime premiums are not included.

Gross pay, not take-home pay

Every amount on this page is gross income before federal, state, or local taxes, insurance, retirement contributions, and other payroll deductions. Use the figures to compare schedules and offers, not as a prediction of a specific paycheck or take-home amount.
