Here's What You Should Know Before Hiring in Lithuania

Compensation & Benefits

When hiring in Lithuania, employers contribute to the state social insurance system (Sodra), which funds pensions, healthcare, sickness, and maternity benefits. Employer contribution minimums are low by EU standards at 1.77% of gross pay for indefinite contracts. Employees access public healthcare through mandatory health insurance, so private coverage is optional. However, supplemental private health insurance can help you hire more competitively.
