Formula Used

The Ontario Nanny Payroll Calculator uses the following formula to determine net pay:

Where:

• Hourly Rate - The nanny's hourly wage
• Hours Worked - Total hours worked per week
• Income Tax - Calculated based on Ontario's progressive tax rates
• CPP - Canada Pension Plan contribution (5.95% of earnings)
• EI - Employment Insurance premium (1.66% of earnings)
• Other Deductions - Includes provincial sales tax (PST) and other mandatory deductions
• Benefits - Any additional benefits provided to the nanny

Worked Example

Let's calculate the payroll for a nanny earning $20/hour who works 35 hours per week with no additional benefits.

1. Gross Pay = $20 × 35 = $700
2. Income Tax = $700 × 20.5% (Ontario's marginal tax rate) = $143.50
3. CPP = $700 × 5.95% = $41.65
4. EI = $700 × 1.66% = $11.62
5. Other Deductions = $700 × 8% (PST) = $56
6. Net Pay = $700 - ($143.50 + $41.65 + $11.62 + $56) = $397.23

The calculator will provide these exact figures when you enter the values.
