Calculations use 2026 Irish tax rates (Budget 2026). PRSI (Class A) is 4.2% to 30 September 2026 and 4.35% from 1 October, so annual figures use the 2026 blend of 4.2375%. Earnings up to €352/week are PRSI-exempt, and between €352 and €424/week a tapered PRSI credit of up to €12/week reduces the charge. Results assume standard tax credits only and exclude pension contributions, BIK, share options, or other reliefs. For precise advice consult a tax professional or Revenue.ie.
Permanent median

Contract median
€550/day
≈ €121,000 gross a year
At a median €550/day, contract work grosses about €121,000 a year over 220 billable days, 51% more than the €80,000 permanent median. That premium has to pay for what an employer would otherwise cover: paid holiday and sick days, pension contributions, and the gaps between contracts.
Contract and permanent benchmarks come from separate samples, so treat the gap as a guide rather than a like-for-like quote. See Insights Manager contract rates and contractor take-home →
