How to Compare Two Salaries/Sweldo

Enter gross monthly pay (sweldo) for Salary 1 and Salary 2, then add taxable bonuses and non-taxable allowances to see which salary leaves you with more net pay.

Both Salary 1 and Salary 2 are run through the same 2026 SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG, and BIR withholding tables so take-home pay is directly comparable.

After comparing, you can download a printable side-by-side salary comparison PDF — labeled as an estimate only, not an official document.

Shift schedule, HMO, and remote flags are for your reference only — they do not change the payroll calculation or tax/buwis estimates.

Compare results are estimates based on 2026 publicly available contribution and tax tables. Verify final figures before making a decision.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I compare besides gross pay when evaluating two job offers?

Compare net take-home pay, not just gross — HMO, allowances, remote work flexibility, and bonus structure can outweigh a slightly higher gross offer. SweldoSense calculates net pay for both offers side by side so you're comparing apples to apples.

Bakit mas mababa ang net pay kahit mas mataas ang gross sa isang offer?

Maaaring mas mataas ang withholding tax o mandatory contributions sa mas mataas na gross salary, kaya kailangan ihambing ang netong matatanggap, hindi lang ang gross.

Does this comparison tool account for non-taxable allowances?

Yes — non-taxable allowances are added to net pay after tax is computed on the gross salary, separately for each offer.

Can I compare a Manila offer against a provincial offer?

Yes — SweldoSense uses the same national SSS/PhilHealth/Pag-IBIG/BIR tables for both, since these mandatory deductions don't vary by region. Cost of living differences should be considered separately.

Should I pick the job with higher 13th month pay or higher monthly net pay?

Depends on your budgeting needs — a higher monthly net pay improves day-to-day cash flow, while a larger 13th month pay is a lump sum better suited for annual expenses or savings goals.

Can I compare an employee salary with an independent contractor rate?

Yes. Toggle Independent contractor on either Salary 1 or Salary 2. Contractor tax assumes the 8% flat option when annual receipts are ₱3,000,000 or less, or graduated TRAIN rates with 40% OSD above that. The estimate excludes EWT/2307 credits, percentage tax, and VAT. SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG are voluntary and are not deducted.

Can I download a printable salary comparison PDF?

Yes. After you compare two offers, use Download PDF to save a printable side-by-side estimate. The PDF is labeled as an estimate only — it is not an official document.
