Calculation sources and assumptions
- Salaries: Michael Page salary grids, 2027 salary survey (collected on 10/25 and 10/28/2026), average fixed gross annual salary in Île‑de‑France; for other regions, the gap published in the grid, taken at the midpoint of its range. Each job family has its own grid, shown below the selection. Source
- Employer payroll taxes: about 42% of gross salary, minus the 2026 single sliding-scale general reduction (January 2026 minimum wage (SMIC), €12.02 per hour). Source
- Recruitment: €5,000 to €8,000 (Factorial, 2025); €6,500 used, spread over three years. Source
- Workstation: €11,051 per year, average total cost of premises, equipment and services (IDET “Buzzy Ratios” 2024 barometer); the same amount in every region, as no figure is published by region. Source
- Moderation: no published grid, calculated at the minimum wage (SMIC, low assumption). AI data evaluator: few published grids, order of magnitude. Development and English-speaking profiles: quote on request, not included in the calculation.
- CSS price: the starting price for the selected job, per month and per position; qualified and English-speaking profiles quoted on request.
