HI,

an employee has started a pension, he is paying 5% and the company is paying 5%. I set it up in Sage Payroll and Sage support has confirmed that it is set up properly. Can somebody explain to me how this works as it is deducting from the gross. On the payslip under deductions it states:

Pension - PRSA - EE 57.69

Pension - PRSA - ER 57.69

Under Summary

Deductions before tax 57.69

why is 57.69 being deducted from the gross?

Thanks in advance

Noel
