Overview

Recently classified as the most difficult payroll in the world, Italian payroll has a fast-changing multiple layer legislation. It requires coordination between a huge labour law (above 20 types of individual contract), an impressive number of National Collective Bargaining agreements (800 and increasing, with 1845 valid agreements as of 2017), local b.a. (above 700), thousands of company agreements. On top of this, a complex income taxation (1 National, 20 Regional and above 8000 City-hall taxation rules) a complex public pension scheme (15 big groups – 89 subgroups of contributions), mandatory public accident insurance (4 big groups of contributions – 40 subgroups), together with protected absenteeism (maternity leaves, sickness, many others), create one of the most complicated payroll algorithm in the world. Mainly for this, Italian law requires that the company only communicate with public bodies directly or through a certified labour consultant, requiring to coordinate your usual group provider with a local, certified one. Compliance risk is very high and unexpected costs could arise, even direct impact to the business (missing “DURC” certification).
