How much can a company contribute to employees' benefits?
Updated this week

Your staff will be able to see the benefits available to them once they log into their mobile app. It will be clearly displayed to them how much you, the employer, are contributing, and how much they, the employee, are contributing.

It is completely up to your company to define how much to contribute for employee benefits and separately, employee dependents. If you really want to manage benefits as an instrument to hire and lock talent, you can use our contribution tool as additional guidance. You’ll find this tool when creating certain benefits, such as pension or health insurance in Ireland or International health insurance in other EU countries. In the 'Configuring contributions' step, you can discover what is considered an average low, standard or competitive contribution.

Specifically for health insurance in Ireland and International, you can also check out our available plans and their respective base prices, to help you decide on the amount you'd like to offer to your employees. Note these base prices might vary slightly from the final premium from individual to individual, as the final price depends on personal characteristics. However, it gives you a fair reference to set your contribution.

The plan base prices displayed for Ireland are gross prices, thus exclude TRS. That is, they represent the amount you'll have to charge your employees. Yet, Kota will only charge you the net amount. The remaining amount concerning TRS should be sent by you, from your employees' salary, to Revenue. Your employees can later claim this amount back from Revenue.
