Employee pay
Take-home salary
Estimate ordinary monthly pay for a confirmed eligible Malaysian citizen or permanent resident aged 18–54.
Enter ordinary taxable pay that is also EPF-contributable, including confirmed recurring taxable allowances. Other wage classifications need payroll review.
Confirm a supported employee category and ordinary wages without bonus before using this estimate. Other categories and bonus-inclusive periods require individual statutory review.
Assumptions
Confirmed Malaysian citizen or PR aged 18–54 in PERKESO First Category and eligible for EIS. Other ages, contribution histories and categories are not estimated. Ordinary wages only: bonuses and uncertain wage components need separate scheme-specific review. EPF Part A rates apply from October 2025; PERKESO Act 4 and Act 800 schedules are capped at RM6,000. If selected, voluntary LINDUNG 24 Jam uses the Phase 1 schedule effective from 1 June 2026, is capped at RM6,000, and is fully employee-funded. Local participation became voluntary from 8 July 2026. Benefits in kind and non-cash deductions are excluded. Reference estimates, not a complete payroll calculation; do not use these current schedules for historical or future wage periods without checking their effective dates.

EPF follows the statutory wage bands (not a simple percentage below RM20,000). SOCSO, EIS, and optional LINDUNG 24 use their official assumed-wage bands.
Check the statutory minimum for a private-sector employee in Peninsular Malaysia or Labuan.

Full-year statutory minimum

A fraction below half a day is disregarded; half a day or more becomes one day. This shows only the current termination-year accrual, not prior leave still due or total leave payable. Contractual leave can be more generous.
Eligibility and scope
The 8/12/16-day minimum applies to employees covered by the Employment Act in Peninsular Malaysia and Labuan. Sabah and Sarawak have separate labour laws. Unauthorised absence over 10% of working days can affect entitlement. On termination, prior untaken leave and leave accrued this year require separate review.
Reviewed 23 September 2026
Section 60E sets 8 days below two years, 12 days from two to under five years, and 16 days from five years onward.

This is the additional statutory payment above ordinary monthly wages.
Formula used
Ordinary rate = monthly wages ÷ 26; hourly rate = ordinary rate ÷ normal daily hours. Normal-day overtime is 1.5× hourly, rest-day excess is 2×, and paid public-holiday excess is 3×. Public-holiday work includes two ordinary-rate days in addition to the holiday pay already contained in monthly wages.

Assumptions
Confirmed Malaysian citizen or permanent resident aged 18–54 in PERKESO First Category and eligible for EIS. Other ages, categories and bonus-inclusive periods require separate review. Only basic salary and confirmed contributable fixed allowances are automatically included in the separately shown EPF, SOCSO and EIS bases. HRD Corp covers only eligible Malaysian-citizen employees of registered and liable employers. Confirmed ordinary travel allowances are counted in cash cost but excluded from those bases; unclassified components require individual review. The estimate excludes medical insurance, equipment, work permits, leave replacement, foreign-worker schemes, and the employee-funded optional LINDUNG 24 Jam amount. Employers remit that optional deduction on behalf of participating employees, but it does not increase the employer-cost total shown here.
Reviewed 23 September 2026
Employer EPF, SOCSO, and EIS shares use the same reviewed schedules as the take-home calculator; verify current contribution rates.
Confirm employee status, current statutory rules, and exceptional circumstances with the official agency or a qualified adviser. Assumptions reviewed on 23 September 2026; verify applicable rules and contribution schedules with official sources before relying on estimates.
