About This Tool
This tool estimates a PJ rate from a CLT monthly salary for Brazil. It helps HR, finance, recruiters, and contractors decide pricing, budgeting, and transition scenarios.
Use when evaluating moving a CLT employee to PJ or when setting contractor pricing to match total employment costs. It provides a data-driven baseline, not a guarantee, and supports scenario exploration.
Conceptually, the tool converts employer burdens such as 13th salary, vacation with 1/3 bonus, and FGTS into a monthly PJ rate to cover the equivalent employer costs. Optional adjustments for benefits and self-employment taxes are supported. The result includes monthly and annual PJ amounts, plus a conversion factor to aid quick comparisons.
This yields practical guidance for HR, procurement, and payroll teams during hiring, budgeting, or contractor negotiations, with clear, scenario-based outputs.
How to Use
1. Enter the CLT gross monthly salary in BRL.
2. Optionally enable or disable 13th salary and vacation bonuses, and adjust FGTS and extra monthly costs.
3. Optionally provide self-employment tax rate or other tax assumptions.
4. Run the calculation to obtain monthly PJ gross, annual PJ cost, and the conversion factor.
5. Review outputs and adjust inputs to compare scenarios.
