Services · Personnel costs
What does an employee in Italy really cost?
The agreed gross salary is only part of the actual personnel costs. The collective agreement, job classification, employer contributions, TFR, additional payments, and other components can all affect the total cost. I calculate the expected personnel costs based on the specific employment situation. This gives businesses a solid basis before a hire, a salary change, or a budget decision.
Expertise
Solid calculations instead of flat-rate mark-ups.
Personnel costs depend on the specific employment situation. Relevant factors include, among others, the collective agreement, the role, job classification, pay, working time, social security, TFR, additional payments, and any further collective-agreement or individual components.
The calculation follows the specific employment situation, not a flat percentage formula.
Components
What can go into the calculation
Collective agreement
The applicable collective agreement and its economic provisions.
Job classification and role
Scope of duties and classification under the collective agreement.
Pay and additional payments
Fixed and other scheduled pay components.
Social security
Employer contributions based on the specific employment.
Severance pay (TFR)
Accounting for the Trattamento di Fine Rapporto (severance provision).
Other components
Depending on the sector, company, and employment, additional cost factors may be relevant.
Trust
Decisions based on transparent assumptions.
A cost calculation shouldn't just deliver a figure. The key assumptions and influencing factors need to be understandable. That way, the calculation can serve as a basis for budgeting, pay decisions, and internal coordination.
Solutions
Compare options before you decide.
On request, different pay levels, working-time models, or other legally available options can be compared. This shows how a change affects the employer's costs.
Optimizing personnel costs doesn't mean looking for the cheapest construction. It means knowing the economically sound and legally sound options available.
Not just for new hires.
A cost analysis is also useful for:
- Pay raises
- Changes to working time
- New pay models
- Budget planning
- Reviewing existing staff structures

International
Personnel costs for international employers
A pay budget from another country cannot simply be carried over to Italy. I can calculate the expected Italian employer costs before an offer is made and prepare the results in a way that's clear for HR and Finance.
