Employer cost calculator Mauritius

On top of the salary, an employer pays contributions to MRA every month and has to fund the end of year bonus.

Enter the basic wage to see each cost and the total for the month and the year.

How it's calculated

CSG: 3% of the basic wage up to Rs 50,000, and 6% of all of it above that.
NSF: 2.5% of the basic wage, counted between Rs 4,580 and Rs 29,710.
Training levy: 1.5% of the full basic wage. PRGF: 4.5% of the basic wage for workers earning up to Rs 200,000, unless the company has its own pension scheme.
End of year bonus: one twelfth of the month's pay is set aside, with the employer CSG that will be due on it.

An example

A basic wage of Rs 30,000 costs Rs 36,017.75 a month once contributions and the bonus are included.

Frequently asked questions

What is the PRGF?

The Portable Retirement Gratuity Fund. The employer pays 4.5% of monthly remuneration into an account in the worker's name, which funds the gratuity on retirement.

Who pays the training levy?

Only the employer. It is 1.5% of the basic wage of every employee other than a household worker, with no ceiling.

Why is the bonus part of the monthly cost?

The law gives workers with a basic wage up to Rs 100,000 a bonus of one twelfth of their earnings for the year. Setting it aside each month spreads that cost.
