Methodology

How the calculation works

1. Employer Cost Multiplier

Each country applies a different multiplier to net salary to arrive at total employer cost (including social security, insurance, and administrative overhead).

2. Danubian Crew Model

Our centralized Bulgarian employment structure reduces overhead through economies of scale, A1 certificate optimization, and streamlined administration.

3. Range Estimate

We provide a range rather than a fixed figure because actual savings depend on fleet size, vessel routes, and specific operational requirements.
