We believe in allowing you to cultivate your personal life and enjoy a work-life balance by offering flexible working arrangements (e.g. part-time, teleworking).

Income tax
The Protocol of Privileges and Immunities of the European Union applies to our staff.
You are liable to pay income tax to the European Union on your EIB salary and pensions. We withhold this tax at source. You are exempt from paying national taxes on your EIB income.
Tax scale
The tax scale is progressive: the greater the taxable income, the higher the rate of tax. The scale is divided into income brackets with increasing percentages of taxation, from 0% to 45%. The original tax scale was laid down in 1968 by EC Regulation No 260/68 on tax, with a coefficient of 100%. This coefficient is readjusted on a regular basis by the Council of Ministers of the European Union and published in the Official Journal.
Base salary
GRADs will receive an annual gross salary of EUR 42 755.40.
Performance-related awards
GRADs are not eligible for performance-related awards.
Other financial and non-financial benefits
All our benefits are subject to eligibility criteria, and are based on personal circumstances. You will be asked to provide evidence to justify your entitlements, and changes in personal circumstances may imply a change in the allowances/benefits entitlement.
