Definition of Salary
A salary is a payment for work that has been done, which is based on a fixed yearly or monthly rate.
Salaries are usually paid weekly or monthly.
For example, Jacob receives an annual salary of \(\$60,000\), which is paid monthly. This means that he receives \(\$5,000\) a month before tax and other deductions.
Workers who are paid salaries are not usually paid for overtime work, but they receive other benefits such as paid annual leave and sick leave.
