Minimum wage is quoted as a gross pay figure. Start the calculation by working out how many hours you work in a week. For example, you might work 30 hours a week for 42 weeks a year. If your hourly wage is €28.50, your annual gross pay would then be €35,910. The sum for this would be: *€28.50 x 30 hours x 42 weeks* = __€35,910__. Always remember to check whether your employer offers time off for holidays or sick days.
