SSS, PhilHealth and Pag-IBIG contributions

Three contributions come out of a Philippine employee's pay: at most ₱1,750 to SSS, ₱2,500 to PhilHealth and ₱200 to Pag-IBIG a month. Your employer pays its own share on top.

5%SSS, your share

Of your salary credit, from ₱5,000 to ₱35,000. Your employer pays 10% plus ₱10 or ₱30.

2.5%PhilHealth, your share

Half of 5%, on basic salary from ₱10,000 to ₱100,000.

2%Pag-IBIG, your share

On pay up to ₱10,000, so ₱200 at most. 1% if you earn ₱1,500 or less. Your employer pays 2%.

PhilHealth

The premium is 5% of your basic salary, shared equally. A basic salary of ₱30,000 means ₱1,500.00 in all, ₱750.00 from you. Below ₱10,000 you pay on ₱10,000 (₱250.00), and above ₱100,000 you pay on ₱100,000 (₱2,500.00). Commission, overtime, allowances, 13th month pay and bonuses are not counted. The law's schedule of rates ended in 2025; we found no later change, and PhilHealth's 2026 advisory for direct contributors still states 5%.

Pag-IBIG

Unlike PhilHealth, the Pag-IBIG fund salary includes other allowances as well as basic pay. It stops at ₱10,000, so anyone with a fund salary of ₱10,000 or more pays ₱200, and their employer ₱200.
