Remuneration payments for the employees in a company should be managed and provided with the utmost care and the calculations of the salaries per month should be provided based on the various parameters set by the company. These may be based on leaves, time off days, the company approved vacations, etc. As the salary is due every month the company is liable to track the attendance and work entries and duties performed by the employee for the respective months. The company is also liable to provide the employees with food coupons and travel allowances for each month. All these allowance amounts should be enclosed with the salary and should be depicted in the payslip. The payslips information of an employee is both important for the company as well as the employee since they can be used to procure various bank mortgages for the employee and can be kept as a record while filling the taxes for a month.
