Explanation

The question relates to the payroll of a permanent office worker in Germany. Female employees receive their gross salary, from which certain taxes and social security contributions are automatically deducted. These include insurance levies and state taxes. Other taxes or levies, on the other hand, tend to affect companies or self-employed persons. Against this background, it should be clarified which of the aforementioned taxes are not paid directly from an employee's salary.
