Budgeting for a Research Role

  • It is important to remember that the cost of employment is not limited to the salary of the employee
  • 'Annual Salary' is the gross amount the employee will earn and is subject to statutory deductions
  • 'Benefit Cost' is the additional cost to the employer to provide benefits, such as sick time, health and pension
  • The amount paid by the employer for benefits, in addition to the base salary, is approximately 22%
  • Costs associated with benefits are based on employment type and are subject to change

Simplified Method
[ Annual Salary x ( 1+ Avg. Benefit Cost % ) ] x Full Time Equivalent 'FTE'

Example
( $50,000 x 1.22 ) x 0.8 = $48,800 estimated annual salary cost to the employer
