How it works

SSS snaps your salary to the nearest ₱500 Monthly Salary Credit bracket (₱5,000 floor, ₱35,000 ceiling). Employee pays 5% of MSC, employer pays 10%, plus the small Employee Compensation premium (₱10 or ₱30) that the employer covers alone.

PhilHealth takes 5% of monthly basic salary, split 50/50. The salary band is ₱10,000 floor to ₱100,000 ceiling, so a ₱50,000 earner and a ₱200,000 earner cap out at the same ₱2,500 each side.

Pag-IBIG uses the ₱10,000 Monthly Fund Salary cap. Employee pays 1% if MFS ≤ ₱1,500, otherwise 2% — capped at ₱200/mo. Employer always pays 2% of MFS, also capped at ₱200/mo.

Frequently asked questions

Who pays what — employee or employer?

All three agencies split contributions. SSS: 5% from you, 10% from your employer (on the same Monthly Salary Credit), plus a small Employee Compensation premium your employer pays alone (₱10 if MSC < ₱15,000, otherwise ₱30). PhilHealth: 5% of salary, split 50/50 between you and your employer, capped at a ₱100,000 ceiling. Pag-IBIG: you pay 1% if MFS ≤ ₱1,500 or 2% above, while your employer always pays 2% — capped at a ₱10,000 MFS, so ₱200/mo max each side.

What is the Monthly Salary Credit (MSC)?

MSC is the SSS-defined bracket that determines your contribution. The schedule runs from ₱5,000 (floor) to ₱35,000 (ceiling) in ₱500 steps. Your monthly compensation is snapped to the nearest bracket midpoint. Anything above ₱35,000 is capped at the ceiling — so a ₱120,000 earner contributes the same SSS share as someone earning ₱35,000.

Why is the SSS rate 15%?

Under RA 11199 (Social Security Act of 2018), the SSS contribution rate has been phased up from 11% in 2018 to 15% in 2025. The law caps it there. The 15% total is split as 5% employee, 10% employer. That's the rate this calculator uses for 2025 and 2026.

Is the PhilHealth rate really 5%?

Yes — 5% of monthly basic salary, split 50/50, has been in effect since 2024 under the Universal Health Care Act (RA 11223). The ₱100,000 salary ceiling caps the contribution at ₱2,500 each side. PhilHealth has not announced a 2026 rate change, so we keep this calculator at 5%.

Why is the Pag-IBIG cap ₱200 even at high salaries?

HDMF Circular No. 460 raised the Monthly Fund Salary (MFS) cap from ₱5,000 to ₱10,000 in February 2024 — doubling the max from ₱100 to ₱200. The cap means high earners contribute the same as someone earning ₱10,000. You can voluntarily contribute more, but the mandatory portion is capped here.
