In plain language
- Pay slips in the private sector will be standardised to display employer contributions, social security discounts, the total labour cost, and clear explanations of used terms.
- This affects private-sector employees, employers, and payroll agencies responsible for preparing pay slips.
- You will see exactly how much you cost your employer in total, what payroll charges are paid, and what each term on your pay slip means.
