Why these assumptions
- Age. Drives age-banded rules where they exist (Singapore CPF rates, Dutch AOW status); everywhere else it changes nothing.
Computed by the same engine that runs production payroll, on the rules in force 2026-08-31. Rates are checked against the statutory authority and countersigned before they can price anything.
