Tax rates are based on the most recent Ontario tax tables. For exact calculations, use the official Canada Revenue Agency and Ontario Ministry of Finance tax tables.

Worked Example

For an employee with a gross salary of $50,000 in 2023:

Federal Income Tax = $50,000 × 20.5% = $10,250 Provincial Income Tax = $50,000 × 12.16% = $6,080 CPP = $50,000 × 5.1% = $2,550 EI = $50,000 × 1.66% = $830 Total Deductions = $10,250 + $6,080 + $2,550 + $830 = $19,710 Net Pay = $50,000 - $19,710 = $30,290

The employee would receive $30,290 after deductions.
