Recruiter salary and any entered employer payroll costs are allocated to these hires for each year. Tools, advertising and other entered costs are included once for the planned hires. The monthly equivalents divide each horizon’s total by 12, 24 or 36 months for context and do not describe a payment schedule. These horizons do not predict or guarantee how long an employee will stay.
