How the calculation works
- Yearly pay. Monthly pay x 12, weekly pay x 52, or daily pay x days a week x 52.
- Hours in a year. Days a week x hours a day x 52. Full time is 2,080.
- Hourly rate. Yearly pay / hours in a year.
- Daily rate. Yearly pay / (days a week x 52).
Paid holidays are included in the hours on purpose: a salary pays for them, so they belong in the hourly figure. If you want the rate for hours you actually work, take your leave days off the 52 weeks.

Freelance rate calculatorFrequently asked questions
How do I convert a monthly salary to an hourly rate in Romania?
Multiply the monthly salary by 12 to get the yearly figure, then divide by the hours you work in a year. Full time at 8 hours a day, 5 days a week is 2,080 hours a year, so lei4,800 a month is lei57,600 a year and lei27.69 an hour.
How do I work out a daily rate from a salary?
Divide the yearly salary by the days you work in a year. Five days a week for 52 weeks is 260 days, so lei4,800 a month is lei222 a day.
Should a freelancer charge the same hourly rate as an employee earns?
No. An employee is paid for holidays, sick days and time between tasks, and the employer covers equipment, software and often insurance and pension. A freelancer pays for all of that and can usually bill only part of their working week, so a freelance rate is normally well above the salary-equivalent hourly figure. The freelance rate calculator works out the number from your own costs.
What is lei27.69 an hour in US dollars?
