    Introduction

    Statutory components refer to the legally mandated elements of employee compensation, such as taxes, social security contributions, and other government-related deductions.

    The BizGaze’s ‘Statutory Components app’ assists organizations in managing and calculating various statutory deductions and contributions required for payroll processing. It automates the complex calculations and ensures accurate compliance with legal requirements, reducing errors and saving time for HR and payroll departments. This app typically integrates with payroll systems to streamline the process and ensure that employees’ earnings align with legal standards.
