💼 Understanding Salary Structure in Nigeria
Nigerian corporate compensation packages are commonly structured into the BHT formula:
- Basic Salary (40% - 60%): Forms the base calculation for statutory contributions such as NHF (2.5%) and Gratuity.
- Housing Allowance (20% - 30%): Taxable cash allowance, included with Basic and Transport for pension calculations.
- Transport Allowance (10% - 20%): Part of the standard triad for PRA 2014 pension assessment.
- Employer On-Costs (CTC): In addition to gross pay, employers must contribute 10% to employee pension accounts and 1% to the Nigerian Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF).
