That is exactly what a payslip is there to answer.<\/p>\r\n<p>If you run a business or handle HR in Malaysia, the payslip is also one of your legal duties. Here is what it is, what goes on it, and how to get it right every month.<\/p>\r\n<h2><strong>What is a Payslip?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<section id=\"section1\">A payslip is a statement your employer gives or issues you each payday. It shows what you earned for that wage period, what was deducted, and what you actually take home. Locally you will also hear it called a salary slip, pay advice or slip gaji.\r\n<p>Think of it as a receipt for your work. For employees, it is proof of income. For employers, it is proof of payment.<\/p>\r\n<p>You will need your payslip more often than you think:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Applying for a home loan, car loan or credit card (banks usually ask for the last three months)<\/li>\r\n<li>Renting a house or room<\/li>\r\n<li>Filing your income tax with LHDN<\/li>\r\n<li>Checking that your EPF, SOCSO and tax deductions are correct<\/li>\r\n<li>Settling a salary dispute with your employer<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><strong>What Should a Payslip Include in Malaysia?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<section id=\"section2\">\r\n<p>There is no single official <a href=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/free-payslip-template\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>payslip template<\/strong><\/a>, but a proper Malaysian one usually covers these:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Company details:<\/strong> name and address<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Employee details:<\/strong> name, employee number, IC or passport number, job title, plus EPF, SOCSO and income tax numbers<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Pay period and payment date<\/strong><\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Earnings:<\/strong> basic salary, allowances, overtime, commission, bonus and claim reimbursements<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Deductions:<\/strong> EPF, SOCSO, EIS and PCB, plus anything the employee agreed to, like a staff loan repayment<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Employer contributions:<\/strong> the company&#8217;s share of EPF, SOCSO and EIS<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Gross pay and net pay<\/strong><\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Leave balance<\/strong>, if leave is tracked through payroll<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nAllowances and overtime are best listed line by line, not lumped together. If you pay overtime, show the hours and the rate too. It saves you a lot of &#8220;why is my pay different this month?&#8221; conversations.\r\n<pre><strong>Also check: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/payroll-calculation-malaysia-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Payroll Calculation Malaysia: Guide for Employers &amp; Employees<\/strong><\/a><\/pre>\r\n<h2><strong>What Deductions Appear on a Malaysian Payslip?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<section id=\"section3\">\r\n<p>Four statutory items show up on almost every payslip. Here are the rates for Malaysian employees below 60:<\/p>\r\n<table>\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><strong>Deduction<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td><strong>What it is for<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td><strong>Employee share<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td><strong>Employer share<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td><strong>Wage limit<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>EPF (KWSP)<\/td>\r\n<td>Retirement savings<\/td>\r\n<td>11%<\/td>\r\n<td>13% (wages up to RM5,000), 12% (above RM5,000)<\/td>\r\n<td>No cap<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>SOCSO (<a href=\"https:\/\/perkeso.gov.my\/perkhidmatan-kami\/majikan-pekerja\/kadar-caruman.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>PERKESO<\/strong><\/a>)<\/td>\r\n<td>Work injury and invalidity cover<\/td>\r\n<td>About 0.5%<\/td>\r\n<td>About 1.75%<\/td>\r\n<td>RM6,000<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>EIS (SIP)<\/td>\r\n<td>Support if you lose your job<\/td>\r\n<td>About 0.2%<\/td>\r\n<td>About 0.2%<\/td>\r\n<td>RM6,000<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>PCB \/ MTD (LHDN)<\/td>\r\n<td>Monthly income tax<\/td>\r\n<td>Depends on salary and reliefs<\/td>\r\n<td>None<\/td>\r\n<td>Not applicable<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n<p>SOCSO and EIS are worked out using the official contribution tables, so the actual figures are slightly rounded. All four must be paid to the agencies by the 15th of the following month. A few things that often catch people out:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Overtime is not subject to EPF<\/strong>, so it raises gross pay but not the EPF deduction.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Employees aged 60 and above<\/strong> have different rates. EIS stops, and SOCSO covers only the Employment Injury Scheme.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Foreign workers<\/strong> now contribute to EPF too, at 2% each from employee and employer, starting with October 2025 wages.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>HRDF levy<\/strong> is paid by the employer alone, so it never comes out of the employee&#8217;s pay.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nRates change from time to time, so check the KWSP, PERKESO and LHDN websites before you run payroll.\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_4157\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4157\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4157 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Your-Payslip-Breakdown-Gross-to-Net-1024x530.png\" alt=\"Detailed Payslip Breakdown Gross to Net Example\" width=\"840\" height=\"435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Your-Payslip-Breakdown-Gross-to-Net-1024x530.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Your-Payslip-Breakdown-Gross-to-Net-300x155.png 300w, https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Your-Payslip-Breakdown-Gross-to-Net-768x398.png 768w, https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Your-Payslip-Breakdown-Gross-to-Net.png 1135w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4157\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Payslip Breakdown Gross to Net<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<pre><strong>Read also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/socso-lindung-malaysia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>SOCSO Lindung 24\/7: The June 2026 Change<\/strong><\/a><\/pre>\r\n<h2><strong>What Does a Payslip Look Like?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<section id=\"section4\">Most Malaysian payslips follow a two column layout, earnings on one side and deductions on the other. Here is a simple example for Aina, a 28 year old executive earning RM4,000 a month.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>ABC Trading Sdn Bhd<\/strong> \u00b7 Payslip for October 2026 \u00b7 Paid on 31 October 2026<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Employee: Aina binti Rahman \u00b7 Emp.

Gross is what Aina earned. Net is what reaches her bank account. Her employer&#8217;s contributions do not come out of her pay at all; they are an extra cost to the company, shown so she can see what is going into her EPF and SOCSO.<\/p>\r\n<p>PCB is left open here because it depends on each person&#8217;s tax reliefs, like marital status and number of children.

Under the Employment Act 1955 and regulation 9 of the Employment Regulations 1957, employers must give each employee a written statement of wages for every wage period, on or before payday. Since the 2022 amendments, the Act covers employees at all salary levels, not just lower earners.<\/section>\r\n<p>A few related rules worth knowing:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Wage period:<\/strong> it cannot be longer than one month.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>When to pay:<\/strong> salary must be paid within 7 days after the wage period ends. The payslip should reach the employee by that same day.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Overtime, rest day and public holiday pay:<\/strong> due by the last day of the next wage period.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Minimum wage:<\/strong> RM1,700 a month. Your payslips are often the first thing checked to prove you meet it.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>If you are in Sabah or Sarawak, wage matters fall under the Sabah Labour Ordinance and the Sarawak Labour Ordinance instead, which have similar requirements.<\/p>\r\n<p>Employers who skip payslips or pay late can be fined, and employees can lodge a complaint with the Labour Department (JTKSM, or JTK Sabah and JTK Sarawak).<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>How long should employers keep payslips?<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>Keep wage records for at least <strong>6 years<\/strong>, as required under the Employment Act. Since tax records must be kept for <strong>7 years<\/strong> under the Income Tax Act 1967, many companies simply keep all payroll records for 7 years to be safe.<\/p>\r\n<h2><strong>What Are the Types of Payslips?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<section id=\"section6\">\r\n<p>Most employees only ever see the monthly one, but HR teams in Malaysia typically issue three kinds:<\/p>\r\n<table>\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><strong>Type<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td><strong>When it is issued<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Normal payslip<\/td>\r\n<td>Every wage period, for regular salary<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Adjustment payslip<\/td>\r\n<td>To fix an earlier mistake, like an underpayment or overpayment<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Supplementary payslip<\/td>\r\n<td>For extra pay after the normal slip is out, such as a bonus, commission or late overtime<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\nAs for format, paper slips are slowly disappearing. Digital payslips sent by email or through an employee app are now common and accepted, as long as employees can access them easily and on time.\r\n<pre><strong>Check out: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/blog\/epf-for-foreign-workers-malaysia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>EPF for Foreign Workers Malaysia: Are You Calculating It Right?<\/strong><\/a><\/pre>\r\n<h2><strong>Is a Payslip the Same as a Salary Slip or Pay Stub?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<section id=\"section7\">Pretty much, yes. Payslip, salary slip, pay advice and slip gaji all mean the same thing here. &#8220;Pay stub&#8221; is the American term for it.<\/section>\r\n<p>The one that is different is a paycheck. That is the payment itself, while the payslip is the record explaining how that amount was worked out.<\/p>\r\n<h2><strong>How Do Employers Prepare Payslips?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<section id=\"section8\">\r\n<p>Whether you have 5 staff or 500, the monthly routine looks roughly like this:<\/p>\r\n<ol>\r\n<li><strong>Collect the month&#8217;s data.<\/strong> Attendance, overtime hours, approved leave, claims and any salary changes. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/time-attendance-software\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>time attendance software<\/strong><\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/mobile-attendance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>mobile attendance app<\/strong><\/a> saves you from chasing timesheets.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Work out gross pay.<\/strong> Add basic salary, allowances, overtime, commission and reimbursements. Unpaid leave gets deducted here, which is why a proper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.info-tech.com.my\/leave-management-software\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>leave management software<\/strong><\/a> helps.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Calculate statutory deductions.<\/strong> Apply EPF, SOCSO, EIS and PCB using the latest official tables.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Build the payslip.<\/strong> Fill in earnings, deductions, employer contributions and net pay. Double check names, IC numbers and the pay period.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Issue it on time and file a copy.<\/strong> Send it on or before payday, then keep it with your payroll records.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\nDoing this in Excel works when the team is tiny.
