What is the daily wage and why does it matter?

The daily wage is the portion of the monthly gross salary that falls on a single day. In labour law, many calculations — severance and notice pay, annual-leave pay, overtime, weekly and public-holiday pay — are based on the daily wage. Knowing it accurately is the foundation of payroll and compensation calculations.

How is the daily wage calculated?

In Turkish labour practice a month is taken as 30 days for wage purposes. So the daily gross wage is the monthly gross divided by 30. The hourly wage is the daily wage divided by the normal daily working time (usually 7.5 hours).

Example

For a monthly gross of 30,000 ₺, the daily gross wage is 30,000 / 30 = 1,000 ₺. The hourly wage is about 1,000 / 7.5 ≈ 133.33 ₺.
