Description topics

Compensation of employees
Compensation of employees is the total remuneration paid by employers to
their employees in return for work done. Employees are all residents and
non-residents working in a paid job. Managing directors of limited
companies are considered to be employees; therefore their salaries are
also included in the compensation of employees. The same holds for people
working in sheltered workshops.
Compensation of employees is classified in wages and salaries and
employers' social contributions.
Wages and salaries
Wages and salaries include income taxes and employees' social
contributions even if they are actually withheld by the employer and paid
directly to tax authorities, social security schemes and pension schemes.
Besides wages that are periodically and directly paid to employees, wages
and salaries also contain wages in kind and holiday allowances.
Furthermore, certain refunds for costs made by the employee are included
as well.
Jobs of employees
A job is an explicit or implicit employment contract between a person and
an economic unit which specifies that labour will be carried out in return
for (financial) remuneration.
---
A distinction is made between jobs of employees and jobs of self-employed
persons. In this table only jobs of employees are included.
