the reality is if you\u2019re an employer and you get it wrong, there can be disastrous implications. With SMEs making up 99% of businesses in Singapore, they\u2019re the backbone of the economy and yet are often left to figure things out by themselves.\n\nWith so much uncertainty in the economy, plus a constant struggle to retain and recruit employees, there\u2019s never been a more important time for Singaporean businesses to make sure they\u2019re paying their employees compliantly. Our Singapore payroll guide can help you do just that.\n\nIt covers;\n<ul class=\"listitem\">\n \t<li>Salary and payments<\/li>\n \t<li>Yearly reporting<\/li>\n \t<li>Payslips and pay records<\/li>\n \t<li>When can non-compliance occur?<\/li>\n \t<li>Choosing the right\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/products\/payroll-software\/\">payroll software<\/a>\u00a0in Singapore<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"legal\"><strong><em>Disclaimer:<\/em><\/strong><em> The information in this guide is current as at 27th March 2024, and has been prepared by 91爆料 Pty Ltd (ABN 11 160 047 709) and its related bodies corporate (91爆料).

The employee is responsible for their own annual income tax declaration, which is paid directly to the local tax authority, the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS).\n\nThere are several variations that may apply to an employee\u2019s personal income tax rate. For more information, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iras.gov.sg\/taxes\/individual-income-tax\/basics-of-individual-income-tax\/tax-residency-and-tax-rates\/individual-income-tax-rates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IRAS website<\/a>.\n\nAlthough monthly tax obligations are not withheld by the employer, there are important levies, deductions and contributions that are paid during the payroll process. Our payroll guide can help you better understand these payments.\n<h2>What is the Singapore Employment Act?<\/h2>\nIn Singapore, salary payments, deductions and variable wages are governed by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mom.gov.sg\/employment-practices\/employment-act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Employment Act<\/a>.\n\n\u200b\u200bThe Employment Act is Singapore\u2019s primary piece of payroll legislation, and governs most of the country\u2019s laws relating to paying employees.\n\nAll employees working under a contract of service are covered by the Act, and it applies to;\n<ul>\n \t<li aria-level=\"1\">Local and foreign employees<\/li>\n \t<li aria-level=\"1\">People employed on a full-time, part-time, temporary or contract basis<\/li>\n \t<li aria-level=\"1\">People who are paid hourly, daily, monthly or piece rate (they are employed based on volume of work or tasks completed)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nIt does not cover people employed as seafarers, domestic workers, statutory board employees or civil servants. The terms and conditions of their employment will be according to their employment contract instead.\n\nEnacted in 1968, the Employment Act is Singapore\u2019s main labour law and acts as a source of truth for all things related to employment in Singapore. It relates directly to payroll, and also to other HR compliance.\n\nTo learn more about HR compliance under the Employment Act, download our free <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/hr-compliance-essential-guide\/\">Guide to HR Compliance in Singapore<\/a>.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19349\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/04\/2-1.png\" alt=\"woman typing on keyboard\" width=\"1728\" height=\"1014\" \/>\n<h2>Why is it important for business owners to understand payroll?<\/h2>\nIf you employ people, then payroll is a key part of your business \u2013 regardless of whether you\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/blog\/in-house-payroll-vs-outsourcing\/\">outsourcing payroll or processing it in-house<\/a>. It\u2019s a key outgoing expense, it\u2019s what connects your team to their jobs and it\u2019s a constant business operation.\n\nVery few people become employers to become payroll experts, but having a strong understanding of the practice can be extremely beneficial when it comes to running your business. Here\u2019s why you should feel empowered to learn more about payroll.\n<h3>Business compliance<\/h3>\nWhether it\u2019s paying your employees the correct amount in the right salary period, keeping track of overtime pay or paying the correct amount in contributions to the Central Provident Fund (CPF), understanding payroll and employment income can help you stay compliant.\n\nWhether you employ one person, or one hundred people, the same rule applies to all businesses when it comes to payroll \u2013 be compliant or face strict penalties. Remember, it doesn\u2019t pay to take risks. Investing your time in understanding the practice will help safeguard your business.\n<h3>Employee engagement<\/h3>\nWhen we think about employee engagement, we often focus on <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/leaders-guide-company-culture\/\">company culture<\/a> and employee perks and benefits.\n\nWhat we often forget is that one of the best ways to engage your employees is to run payroll correctly and on time, each salary period. When you have a great understanding of payroll processing, you can make sure this process is being completed correctly \u2013 and you can easily manage any employee enquiries if an issue were to arise.\n\nBy having the knowledge and the overview of your payroll process, you send a message to your employees that you care about their experience within the business \u2013 and you understand that their salary payment is an important part of their life.\n<h2>Examples of contributions and levies<\/h2>\nLet\u2019s walk through a brief overview of contributions and levies. You can find a more detailed explanation of these by downloading the Payroll Guide.\n<h3>Central Provident Fund contributions<\/h3>\nThe Central Provident Fund, commonly known as CPF, is a government-run social security fund that supports retirement, healthcare and housing. It is funded by contributions from employers and employees. Payments to CPF are known as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mom.gov.sg\/employment-practices\/central-provident-fund\/employers-contributions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPF contributions<\/a>.\n\nSingaporean citizens and Singapore permanent residents are entitled to CPF contributions from their employer.\n\nEmployers are required to make two contributions to an employees\u2019 CPF account every month:\n<ul>\n \t<li aria-level=\"1\">Employee\u2019s contribution: deducted from their salary; and<\/li>\n \t<li aria-level=\"1\">Employer\u2019s contribution: a fixed percentage of the employee\u2019s wage, provided on top of their existing salary.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nIf your employee is earning more than $500 per month, you\u2019re permitted to deduct the employee\u2019s share of mandatory CPF contributions from their wages \u2014 but rates will be lower for those earning between $500 to $750. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpf.gov.sg\/employer\/infohub\/news\/cpf-related-announcements\/new-contribution-rates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPF contribution rates<\/a> are not fixed for everyone \u2014 they are dependent on an employee\u2019s age, and their permanent resident status (if applicable).\n<h3>The Foreign Worker Levy<\/h3>\nThe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mom.gov.sg\/passes-and-permits\/work-permit-for-foreign-worker\/foreign-worker-levy\/what-is-the-foreign-worker-levy#:~:text=The%20foreign%20worker%20levy%2C%20commonly,is%20issued%2C%20whichever%20is%20earlier.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Foreign Worker Levy<\/a> (sometimes referred to as the Foreign Workers Levy or the FWL) is defined by the government as <em>\u2018a pricing mechanism to regulate the number of foreigners in Singapore.\u2019<\/em> A business must pay the monthly levy for every worker on a Work Permit or Temporary Work Permit.\n<h3>The Skill Development Levy<\/h3>\nThe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpf.gov.sg\/employer\/employer-obligations\/skills-development-levy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Skill Development Levy<\/a>, or SDL, is another compulsory contribution you have to pay for all your employees, including foreign employees, working in Singapore. The funds contributed are delivered into the Skills Development Fund, which according to CPF, <em>\u201cis used to support workforce upgrading programmes and to provide training grants to you when you send your employees for training under the National Continuing Education Training system.\u201d<\/em>\n<h3>Self Help Group contributions<\/h3>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpf.gov.sg\/employer\/employer-obligations\/contributions-to-self-help-groups\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Self Help Group funds<\/a> (SHGs) support low income groups and the less privileged in different communities in Singapore.\n<h3>SHARE donations<\/h3>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpf.gov.sg\/employer\/employer-obligations\/share-donations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SHARE donations<\/a> are not mandatory contributions. SHARE donations are deducted from the employee\u2019s wages, and collected by the CPF board on behalf of the Community Chest, which finances a variety of programs including those designed for at-risk youth, mental health sufferers, adults with disabilities and more.\n<h2>Examples of common payroll mistakes<\/h2>\n<h3>Inadequate record keeping<\/h3>\nStill using old school pieces of paper to log your employees\u2019 payroll documentation? As it\u2019s so easy for paper to be misplaced or incorrectly filed, this could leave you open to liability if you were to be audited.\n\nIn today\u2019s digital age, record keeping is easy. With so many software options available to help manage payroll, payslips, timesheets and your employees\u2019 time and attendance, there\u2019s no excuse for not having the correct records of your employees.\n<h3>Incorrect set up of your payroll system<\/h3>\nAs you can see above, there are plenty of contributions and levies to keep track of when processing payroll. Apart from paying an employee\u2019s basic salary correctly, you want to make sure that all payments are set up properly and going to the correct place.\n\nImagine if you\u2019ve been paying a team $2 less of their correct CPF contribution amounts for the last five years? Think about how much you\u2019d be required to pay back, and the additional penalties that may apply.\n<h3>Forgetting about the employee experience<\/h3>\nEmployees want to be informed about their pay just as much as you do. If you aren\u2019t providing them with quick access to their payslips, it can be incredibly frustrating.\n\nPayslips are essential records that you are obligated to provide to your employees, but don\u2019t make them wait for a paper document or email each salary period. Giving them access to cloud-based payslips (like those on <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/solutions\/payslips\/\">91爆料<\/a>), can help them feel empowered to review their income information anytime, anywhere.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19348\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/04\/1-1.png\" alt=\"woman typing on the keyboard\" width=\"1728\" height=\"1014\" \/>\n<h2>How can payroll software help?<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/products\/payroll-software\/\">Payroll software<\/a> can make a significant difference when it comes to processing an employee\u2019s salary.\n\nFully integrated with the IRAS, pay your people faster than ever with automated payroll from 91爆料.
