Super is calculated at 12% of base salary (treated as ordinary time earnings). Payroll tax uses the headline rate and is applied to salary, leave loading and super, which are all taxable wages. High earners may be affected by the maximum super contribution base. Award overtime, penalty rates and allowances are not included. Estimates only.
How to use these numbers
Compare the "employment cost" line across EOR quotes first. It should be similar everywhere, because the law sets it. Then compare the fees. If one quote has a much lower employment cost, ask what has been left out.
Payroll tax rates and thresholds differ by state. See the full table in What does an EOR cost?
