Contributions, Taxes and Charges of the Employed Physiotherapist in France
Social charges including social security, retirement, and other taxes related to the salary of the employed physiotherapist are paid directly by the employer, on the basis of gross wages. The so-called salary charges are deducted from the gross salary, while the so-called employer charges are added to them. All this is transparent to the employee, who collects his net salary. Job vacancies in France generally show gross salaries.
In the public service, the gross salary of an employed physiotherapist varies between € 1,977.50 and € 3,580.12 depending on the class and seniority (ie € 1,543 to € 2,809 net). This gross remuneration does not include bonuses and allowances (family salary supplement, residence allowances, GIPA, ...). Salaries in the private sector are generally higher than those in the public sector.

Since the first of January, 2019, Income Taxes have also been deducted "at source", which means it is directly collected from the employer. Thus, the salary paid to the employee is the salary net of all charges and taxes. The amount of Income Tax (deducted at source) can be estimated on the official website of the French Tax Administration, on the "Simulators" page. It is a progressive tax, the rate of which varies according to taxable tresholds.
In 2021, for example, a physiotherapist whose taxable income is € 27,600 will have a payroll deduction, as an income tax, of € 1,719, calculated as follows :
- The taxable base corresponds to taxable income minus 10%, i.e. € 24,840
- 0% on the first threshold, i.e. 10,084 x 0% = € 0
- 11% on the second threshold, i.e. (25,710 - 10,084) x 11% = € 1,719
