📚 The "Hidden" Costs
Hiring an employee costs more than their salary. Businesses must account for:
- Employer Contributions: PF (12%), ESI (3.25%), and Gratuity (~4.8%).
- Operations: Laptops, software licenses, desk space, and utilities.
- Perks: Medical insurance, meals, and performance bonuses.
"A common rule of thumb is that an employee’s true cost is 1.25x to 1.4x
their base salary."
