Payslip

What does “salary for the employee insurances” mean?

Answer

Some amounts of your payslip are not paid or deducted separately. They are only used to calculate taxes or insurance contributions. This is one example. This amount is used to calculate contributions for employee insurance schemes. These insurance schemes may provide support in situations such as:

 

  • Unemployment
  • Illness
  • Incapacity for work

 

This amount is not deducted separately from your salary. It may be different from your total gross pay because not every payment is included in the same way when calculating these insurance contributions.
