What must a payslip show in Taiwan?
Article 23 of the Labor Standards Act requires employers to provide a statement showing how each wage item is calculated whenever wages are paid. Article 14-1 of the Enforcement Rules lists the minimum contents (agreed total wages, amount of each wage item, deductions allowed by law or agreement, and the net amount paid). The employer must also keep a wage register (工資清冊) for five years.
Items the rules require (in short):
- Gross pay
- Each earning itemised (basic pay, allowances, bonuses)
- Each deduction itemised with its amount
- Net pay
- Total wages agreed between employer and employee
- Overtime pay (and, if overtime is converted to compensatory leave, the hours exchanged — recommended by the Ministry of Labor)
