Salary
eu-LISA offers competitive salaries, based on a basic salary scale for each contract type, function group and grade.
Staff pay a European tax, which is deducted from their salaries at source. Deductions are also made for sickness and accident insurance, pensions and unemployment insurance. Salaries are exempt from national tax.
Staff members' basic salary and certain allowances are subject to a local weighting (correction coefficient) to adjust them to the cost of living compared to Brussels. The current weighting for the Agency's location in Tallinn, Estonia, is 95,5% and in Strasbourg, France, is 117.0%.
The final salary is calculated by adding the relevant allowances and by deducting social security contributions, solidarity levy.
As part of eu-LISA's staff, you will be insured against sickness, risk of occupational disease and accident, as well have the right to receive payment of invalidity allowance. The insurance may be extended as well to your spouse and children. In addition, after completing a minimum of 10 years' service and after reaching the pensionable age of 66 years, you benefit from the EU pension scheme, to which both the Agency and you make monthly contributions.
