Worked example
A single worker without children earning the average wage of 14,201,852 CLP pays 0.1% in income tax and 7.0% in employee social security contributions, plus 11.8% in mandatory mandatory pension and health contributions that the OECD counts separately, keeping 11,523,029 CLP a year (960,252 CLP a month). At 167% of the average wage the combined rate is 8.4%.
A one-earner married couple with two children at the average wage keeps 13,549,728 CLP after taxes and cash family benefits (before mandatory non-tax payments), according to the same OECD model.
The full tax wedge (all taxes as a share of labour cost) at the average wage is 7.5%, ranked #37 of 38; the OECD average is 35.1%.
