How the calculator works

Yearly pay is the hourly wage times hours a week times paid weeks a year. At $20 an hour, 40 hours a week and 52 weeks, that is $41,600 a year.

Most Canadian employers quote yearly salaries for 52 weeks, because paid vacation is included. If a job pays only for the weeks you work, lower the paid weeks.

Minimum wage

Each province and territory sets its own minimum wage, and federally regulated workplaces follow the federal minimum. Check the current rate with your provincial labour standards office before you accept an offer.
