Day rate calculator
Type in any one of the four. The others work themselves out. Change the hours, days or weeks to match how you actually work.
That works out at
- An hour
- £25.00
- A day
- £200.00
- A week
- £1,000.00
- A year
- £46,000.00
Based on 8 hours a day, 5 days a week and 46 weeks a year.
These are gross figures, before tax, National Insurance or any CIS deduction. To see what comes off under CIS, try the CIS calculator.
Rates are only half of it
A day rate only pays if the days get written down. Banksman logs daywork hours or price work against each site, so the manager can approve them, query them with a reason, and export the week as a CSV.
Labour cost per job : Approved hours times each worker’s rate, so you can see what a job is costing in labour.
