About this market
Market context
Employment tax in Italy refers to the aggregate of all fiscal obligations arising from employment relationships, including income tax withheld from employee salaries (IRPEF) and mandatory social security contributions paid by both employers and employees. It covers compliance with legal and administrative requirements related to payroll processing, tax declarations, and social insurance schemes.
Italian employment tax is characterized by significant social security contributions, which are some of the highest in Europe, typically ranging around 33-40% of gross salary for employers and approximately 9-10% for employees, depending on sector and role. The main income tax for individuals is IRPEF (Imposta sul Reddito delle Persone Fisiche), applied progressively with rates up to 43%. Employers are responsible for withholding IRPEF and social security contributions from employee salaries and remitting them to the Agenzia delle Entrate (Italian Revenue Agency) and INPS (National Social Security Institute) respectively, through monthly F24 payments and annual declarations (e.g., Certificazione Unica).
