Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer € 177 864 530 to pay you € 1 609 633 752. In other words, every time you spend € 10 of your hard-earned money, € 6.30 goes to the government.
Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 52% tax rate now rises to 56.8%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
