## How €24,000 breaks down in Ireland 2026 See the full PAYE, USC, PRSI and pension breakdown in the table above (2026 Revenue rates). Sector insight: this is where many full-time entry-level workers sit. Despite the headline tax rate being modest at 8.7 percent, every euro of additional gross pay still gives you 71 cents net because you are below USC band crossings. That makes overtime and shift differentials particularly valuable. Watch for the implicit cliff at €28,700 where USC steps from 2 percent to 3 percent on the next slice.
