How this is calculated
Visible stepsHow to use the hourly pay calculator
Enter your standard hourly rate and your regular paid hours for a normal week. If you receive a different rate for overtime, switch on overtime and enter the overtime hours and rate. If Sunday work is paid differently, switch on Sunday hours and itemise that rate separately.
The weekly gross figure adds each pay line together. You can then subtract estimated Income Tax, National Insurance, a pension contribution and other regular deductions, or add other regular payments. The monthly and annual estimates repeat the current week across the year, so they are useful planning projections rather than guaranteed income figures.
Adjusted pay, not a full payslip
The adjusted result includes estimated Income Tax and National Insurance from the selected settings, plus the deductions and payments you enter. For fuller tax, pension and student loan modelling, use the UK Pay Calculator after you have an annual gross figure.
Last reviewed: 13 June 2026. Tax and National Insurance estimates are planning figures and should be checked against payslips, employer payroll settings or official guidance where decisions depend on the result.

Tax and NI source notes
Checked 13 June 2026The calculator uses bundled UK tax-rate data for the selected tax code, region and National Insurance category. GOV.UK says the current tax year runs from 6 April 2026 to 5 April 2027, the standard Personal Allowance is GBP 12,570, and Income Tax bands differ in Scotland.
GOV.UK also lists employee National Insurance rates by category letter for 6 April 2026 to 5 April 2027. Payroll can still differ because of employer setup, pay period timing, benefits, student loans, statutory payments, tax-code notices, unpaid breaks or rounding.

Hourly pay calculator FAQs
Can Sunday hours be paid at a different rate?
Yes. You can itemise Sunday hours separately and use a different Sunday hourly rate.
Can I add tax, National Insurance and pension contributions?
Yes. Income Tax and National Insurance are estimated from the tax code, region and NI category you select. You can also add pension contributions, other weekly deductions and other weekly payments.
Is the monthly pay exact?
The monthly figure is an average based on weekly pay multiplied by 52 and divided by 12. Actual monthly pay can differ if your hours change or your employer uses another payroll method.
How do I work out weekly pay from an hourly rate?
Multiply the hourly rate by the paid hours in the week. For example, 37.5 hours at GBP 12.50 an hour gives estimated weekly gross pay of GBP 468.75.
How is overtime added to hourly pay?
Overtime is added as a separate pay line. The calculator multiplies overtime hours by the overtime rate, then adds that to regular gross pay before deductions.
