Estimated by applying Czech Republic’s average total deduction rate for a middle-income earner (20% of gross — income tax plus social contributions) to the whole salary, so it does not vary with income level. The published marginal rate at this level is 15% of income tax only, which is why it is not comparable with the average above.
