Employer cost calculator

Hiring someone costs more than the salary. Employers also pay their share of three mandatory contributions every month.

Enter the monthly basic salary to see the full cost for one employee or for a whole team on the same pay.

How it's calculated

  1. SSS: 10% of the monthly salary credit, plus the Employees' Compensation contribution of ₱10 or ₱30.
  2. PhilHealth: the employer pays the other half of the 5% premium, on income from ₱10,000 up to ₱100,000.
  3. Pag-IBIG: 2% of the fund salary, up to ₱10,000.

An example

For a ₱25,000 salary the employer pays ₱2,530 to SSS, ₱625 to PhilHealth and ₱200 to Pag-IBIG. The monthly cost is ₱28,355.
