Questions

How much EPF is deducted from my salary?

Employees below 60 contribute 11%. The employer adds 13% if your salary is RM5,000 or less, or 12% above that. KWSP works it out on wage bands (RM20 steps up to RM5,000), so the amount is a little above an exact 11%.

How are SOCSO and EIS calculated?

On wages up to RM6,000 a month: SOCSO is about 0.5% from you and 1.75% from your employer; EIS is 0.2% each. PERKESO uses RM100 wage bands, so the amounts follow its tables.

Is the PCB the same as my real tax?

PCB is a monthly advance on your income tax. This estimate assumes the same salary all year and only the automatic reliefs (self, EPF, SOCSO/EIS, spouse, children). If you claim more reliefs when filing, you may get a refund — try the income tax calculator.

What is LINDUNG 24 Jam?

A PERKESO scheme for accidents outside work, with an employee contribution of 0.75% from June 2026. Reports differ on whether it remained compulsory for Malaysian employees, so it is an option here — tick it if it appears on your payslip.
