EPF basics for payroll teams
EPF contributions are a core part of monthly payroll review for Malaysian employers.
- Review employee and employer contribution rates against the current salary package.
- Confirm which allowances are included in the EPF calculation base.
- Keep monthly payroll history for audit and employee questions.
SOCSO and EIS checks
These deductions should be reviewed together with EPF, not as separate afterthoughts.
- Use the official rate logic as part of the monthly payroll review.
- Check new hires, exits, and salary changes before publishing payslips.
- Keep exception notes visible for finance and HR.
PCB and monthly signoff
Tax deduction review is part of the same monthly payroll signoff workflow.
- Review PCB outputs before payslip release.
- Confirm employee tax-related records are current.
- Use one approval path for HR and finance review.
