How salary is calculated in this tool
The calculator shows a monthly picture for one employee. First, the gross salary before deductions is entered. Then employee deductions are calculated, and the employer contribution paid on top of salary is shown separately.
Gross salary - the amount before employee taxes and contributions are withheld
Employee medical contribution = gross salary × 9%
Income tax = base after medical contribution and allowances × 12%
Net payable to employee = gross salary - medical contribution - income tax
Employer social contribution = gross salary × 24%
Total company cost = gross salary + employer social contribution
2026 payroll logic
- personal income tax is calculated at 12% of taxable income;
