gross salary

Pay before deductions

Gross salary is the total amount an employee earns before any deductions.

This figure appears in job offers and employment contracts as the headline number: The position offers a gross salary of $75,000 per year.

From this amount, taxes, insurance premiums, retirement contributions, and other withholdings are subtracted to arrive at net salary—what actually lands in your bank account.
