At a median ₱52,000/month, contract work grosses about ₱624,000 a year over 12 months, 27% more than the ₱492,000 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 .NET Developer contract rates and contractor take-home →
