How the numbers work.
The calculator works in three steps. The table lists every rate it uses, with the yearly cap where there is one.
- 01The employee's Social Insurance and GeSY come off the gross. Both stop at a yearly cap.
- 02Income tax is charged on what's left, band by band. Each slice has its own rate, so a raise never taxes the whole salary at the higher one.
- 03The employer adds its own Social Insurance and GeSY, plus the Redundancy, Training and Social Cohesion funds that only employers pay. None of it comes out of the employee's pay.
