This field is one of four that indicate how pension contributions are calculated for employees within a Worker Group. If this field has a non-zero value, the employee’s and employer’s pension contributions are calculated as a percentage, not a fixed amount of earnings. The worker group contribution basis must be the same for employee and employer contributions.
