Employees in Germany usually receive their salaries every month. The employers must provide their employees with detailed pay slips containing the various salary components, tax deductions, social security contributions, and other additional payments. They deduct some mandatory deductions such as income tax, social security contributions, health insurance contributions, and pension contributions directly from employees' salaries and pay them to the competent authorities.
