What's the difference between gross, net, and employer cost?

Gross is the contract amount before any deduction, net is what reaches your account after CNAS (9%) and IRG, and employer cost is what the employer actually pays: gross plus its 26% CNAS employer share.

Do the calculators differ between the public and private sector?

CNAS and IRG rates are identical in both. But the public sector has dedicated tools — teacher salary, productivity bonus — that follow the pay grids and decrees specific to the civil service.

Do these calculators cover everything owed at the end of a job?

They cover remaining leave and severance per the legal minimum (3 or 6 months). Other entitlements set by your contract or collective agreement, like notice pay, fall outside their scope.

Everything you need to understand your salary in Algeria: from gross to net, including social security contributions and income tax.

Guide to salary calculators in Algeria

Salary calculators turn a payslip line into a clear breakdown: what goes to social security (CNAS), what the global income tax (IRG) takes, and the difference between the gross amount written in your contract and the net amount that actually reaches your account. The category also covers special cases: a university teacher-researcher's salary by grade and step, the quarterly productivity bonus for civil servants, and the real cost an employer bears for a worker. From an ordinary monthly salary to overtime, paid leave, and end-of-contract compensation, each tool handles one piece precisely.

The calculators are updated every year when the new Finance Law is published.
