Frequently asked questions

Why is workers compensation excluded?

Its rate varies by industry and is generally employer-paid, so it is not included in the employee deduction total.

Is pension always a flat share of salary?

No. The pension remuneration base has lower and upper limits, so very low or high pay can produce a different effective rate.

When should I recheck the rates?

Rates and base limits can have different effective dates. Recheck agency notices when the year or your payslip changes.
