Social protection of the business manager

Verified 01 January 2025 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)

The manager of a business receives social protection in return for the social contributions and contributions which are levied on his income. The amount of social contributions and social benefits varies according to the status of the manager. The rules are different when the manager is considered to be a self-employed person or a person treated as an employed person.

Leaders who have the status of Self-employed persons (SFTs) are:

  • Majority Associate Leader of SARL: titleContent
  • Associate Executive OfficerEURL: titleContent
  • Partner of CNS: titleContent

Other leaders enter have statusof equivalent employee.

Self-employed person

The director shall be subject to the following social contributions and contributions:

  • Contribution for sickness and maternity insurance
  • Old-age insurance contribution (basic pension and supplementary pension)
  • Disability and death insurance contribution
  • Contribution of family allowances
  • Contribution to vocational training
  • Generalized Social Contribution (CSG)
  • Social Debt Repayment Contribution (CRDS)

The individual entrepreneur pays the contributions and contributions in 2025 that correspond to the turnover achieved during that year. However, the revenue for the year 2025 is known by the administration only from the 2025 tax return, in other words in May/June 2026. Thus, so-called contributions must be calculated provisional, i.e. calculated on the basis of 2024 income while awaiting 2025 income. Once 2025 revenues are final, their amount is readjusted.

Thus, the contributions and contributions paid by the individual contractor during the year 2025 are taken into account as follows:

  • At the time of the 2024 tax return (May/June 2025), contributions made in 2024 and early 2025 are adjusted.
  • After the 2024 tax return, the individual entrepreneur will make contributions and contributions based on 2024 revenues for the remainder of 2025 and for the months preceding the 2025 income tax return.
  • Starting with the 2025 tax return(May/June 2026), contributions paid in 2025 are recalculated and adjusted as needed.

The method of calculation and the rate applied vary according to the type of contribution and social contribution:

Sickness and maternity insurance contributions

The calculation of sickness and maternity insurance contributions is different depending on whether the director starts his term of office (less than 2 years) or whether he has been in office for more than 2 years.

Start of activity (less than 2 years)

When the officer starts his term of office, he has no revenue known to the administration on which to base the calculation of provisional contributions and contributions. For example, in order to benefit from social protection, lump sums are provided.

In operation for 2 years or more

The income taken into account for the calculation of the contributions corresponds to the income that the manager declares for the calculation of his income tax (IR) before the application of deductions and tax exemptions. In other words, it is the following:

  • Remuneration (business subject to SI) or Industrial and Commercial Benefits (BIC) (business subject to IR).
  • Dividends received when they exceed 10% of the capital of the business
  • Amounts received under an Incentive or Participation Agreement for the business
  • Amounts paid by the business to the manager as part of a company savings plan or a group retirement savings plan
  • Premiums paid under group insurance contracts (e.g.: employment loss, pension and supplementary pension)
  • Accident at work Optional additional contributions paid by the manager (e.g. insurance and occupational diseases)
  • Non-LTD replacement income (e.g.: daily allowances (IJ) maternity, paternity or sickness).

The income is then reduced by the amount of the contributions that the officer must make. The calculation method is as follows:

(sum of social contribution rates in force x income)/(1 + sum of social contribution rates in force).

Sickness insurance contributions are divided into 2 parts: maternity sickness contributions and sickness daily allowance contributions. Each contribution has a specific rate:

  • The rate of insurance contributions maternity sickness varies according to the amount of the manager's income.
  • The rate of contributions of daily allowances is fixed. It is equal to 0.50%. Beyond €235,500, this rate shall be increased to 0%.

The sum of these two rates gives the overall rate sickness and maternity insurance contributions.
