Salary is the fixed, regular remuneration paid to an employee in exchange for their work, typically expressed as an annual figure and paid in equal monthly or bi-weekly installments. Unlike hourly wages, salary is not directly tied to hours worked. Salaried employees typically receive the same pay regardless of whether they work more or fewer hours than standard. Salary decisions are influenced by market rates, internal pay equity, individual performance, and budget constraints.
