net wage

For the tax return, the net wage counts as income from employment. It is calculated as gross wages minus the sum of all social benefits (AHV, ALV, EO, pension fund, PK purchase).

The gross wage includes the salary, fringe benefits such as meals, use of the company car, bonuses, or any share participation.

If there are several employers, the net wages from all wage statements must be added together.
