According to our visual calendar with formulas for the yearly work days and work hours' calculation, there are 2096 work hours in 2019, excluding the business holidays.
For a more complex calculation of the working hours, take this example. Joanna works as a full-time employee in a bank with 40 hours per week. She benefits of 2 weeks of vacation and 5 public holidays (in total 3 weeks of vacation quota). Then the business math to identify the number of working hours in 12 months is the following:
40 hours per week x (52 weeks - 3 weeks) = 40 hours x 49 weeks = 1960 working hours in one year.
You can use the work hours to calculate the salary of your employees and determine the hourly rate. To do this you will need to identify a set of parameters: The number of hours worked weekly, and the hourly salary (don’t forget about the costs for benefits). Let’s go for a concrete example, of Mary working as a full-time employee working 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, and Mark as a part-time one with 20 hours weekly.
Employment contract | Number of hours per week | Number of hours per year | Hourly salary | Yearly salary |
Full-time | 40 | 2096 | $25 | 52400 |
Part-time | 20 | 1048 | $25 | 26200 |
Note: Take into consideration that full-time employees are working 7 hours per day five days per week such as in France, and they have 35 hours work week. In this case, they are working 1965 hours in 2020.
