- In real life
- ₱300 of dues on ₱30,000 cuts income tax from ₱1,007.40 to ₱962.50 a month, since dues aren't taxed.
- Why it matters to you
- Like your SSS and PhilHealth, union dues come off your taxable pay, so they cost a little less than they look.
An explanation to help you read your pay, not a ruling on your case. Your employer, the agency or DOLE has the final word.
