What problem does it solve?
Payroll teams need a reliable, auditable way to compute mandatory Singapore CPF deductions and employer contributions while avoiding common ceiling and age-band mistakes that lead to underpayments, penalties, and reconciliation work. This Skill codifies age-banded and residency-specific rate selection, monthly ordinary wage capping, and annual additional wage ceiling logic to reduce payroll defects and audit findings.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Age and residency rate selection: Selects employee and employer contribution rates by pay month using age bands and PR year tables.
- Wage ceiling handling: Caps ordinary wages at S$6,000 per month and enforces an annual additional wage ceiling of S$102,000 minus year-to-date ordinary wages.
- Integer-cent arithmetic and schema guidance: Recommends storing wages and contributions as integer cents and provides validation test patterns for payroll runs.
- Use Case: Run monthly payroll for Singapore employees, apply OW and AW ceilings, compute employee and employer contribution cents, and persist reasons for exemptions.
