Payment of insurance contributions – salaried employee: I have started working as an employee in a plant. Am I required to notify that to the National Insurance Institute?


​The obligation of reporting lies upon the employer, who must pay national and health insurance contributions for his salaried workers. The employer has to report the workers employed in his business as salaried employee, and pay national and health insurance contributions on their behalf. The employer will himself deduct your share of insurance contributions from the wage you are paid.

However, someone who, prior to his salaried job, did not work nor pay insurance contributions as non-worker – must notify the National Insurance Institute about the start of his employment as salaried employee, in order to let the Institute stop charging him as non-worker (the start of your employment as salaried worker is only reported to the Institute by Income Tax after a certain amount of time).
