How this calculator works
Loaded hourly cost = wage × (1 + burden). Monthly cost = loaded hourly cost × weekly hours × 52 ÷ 12 + fixed costs.
Assumptions to review
- Burden should include employer payroll taxes, insurance, and variable benefits.
- Overtime and paid non-working time need explicit adjustment.
