Hey, Hunters! How you doin'?
After so many options for employees to calculate their salary, something was still off… Other calculators still seemed too basic or simply misleading. And what about employers? How can they craft a solid employment plan without knowing the total costs?
So, after serving more than 100 clients in 30 countries, we understood how to change the game.
Employers hiring in Portugal: this calculator is for you.
No more:
- Hidden fees
- Unexpected taxes
- Salaries miscalculation
Employing in Portugal can get scary. And it can delay what should be a simpler process. So we created the Portugal Salary Cost Calculator.
It works online on your favorite browser, so you don't need to download anything. All it takes is a few clicks, and that's it: enter the gross salary you'll pay employees and decide these options:
- Meal Allowance: how much will you pay employees? Set a number up to €9.60 per day.
- Remote Work Allowance: will your employees work remotely or in-office? When working remotely, you're expected to pay an allowance every month – to help workers with electricity and internet bills.
- Private Health Insurance: check this box if you'll add it to your employees' salary.
Then, hit the button to calculate the employment costs you'll pay in Portugal. Enter your email and get in seconds:
- Total cost of employment
- Gross annual compensation
- Social Security
- Mandatory labor insurance
- Private health insurance
- Health and safety at work
Don't worry about your data. We keep everything locked and private.

It's very easy to use and to understand. I think it would be better to show the results on screen, but I understand the need to collect email addresses... Maybe add information on the net salary?
@callmebymyname thanks for your comment. We thought of including a rough estimate of the net salary but then decided against it. The net salary figure is influenced by several factors (such as if you have kids or not, and how many) and it's difficult to provide a realistic calculation. But, you can schedule a call with us, we can analyse your personal situation and give you additional information on the net salary.

This looks cool!! Super easy to use. Are these the mandatory variables when calculating salaries in Portugal, or is there something else? I wondered if so, as I received more info on the email.

i like how simple it is to understand especially for someone who is not very familiar with the Portuguese salary system, it helps understand the requirements, and it's uncomplicated and easy to use.

Awesome guys! I’ve used calculators in the past to hire contributors in Portugal and the amount of surprises that I had down the road due to the country specificities and hidden liability/costs made us go over budget and have to justify it to the Management… not cool.
I’ll be using for sure, this is super useful

Amazing idea, exactly what was missing on the market. Functional, thought-through, and super easy to use.
Quite straight-forward - once you receive the results via email, you easily understand the calculations. I had no idea there were so many "hidden" costs for companies... when you look at your payslip you only understand the taxes you pay as an employee. With this, you can get the total employment cost, so your taxes and mandatory contributions but also the taxes that the company must pay.
Super useful. I'm used to see these calculators on the employee's side, so I think this one was the missing piece. Now companies can actually know (in full) how much it'll cost to employ someone in Portugal.
I wish there was such a tool for every country, honestly. It saves time to everyone and helps build more consistent salary proposals.
Great job!
