Compare offers on the same basis
An hourly job and a salaried job are easier to compare as the same unit. The number of paid weeks is where the comparison usually goes wrong.
How the calculation works
Annual salary = hourly rate × hours per week × paid weeks
$28 an hour at 40 hours a week for 52 paid weeks is $58,240 a year, $2,240 every two weeks and $4,853 a month. If two weeks a year are unpaid, the same rate is $56,000.
What else to count
Non-exempt hourly workers are owed overtime at time and a half past 40 hours a week under the Fair Labor Standards Act; many salaried roles are exempt. Benefits such as health insurance, retirement match and paid leave can be worth thousands of dollars and belong in any comparison.
