Rules for calculating the "Non-salaried staff" module

A. General rules

1. Business owner:

   The employer will be counted as a non-salaried person. In cases where a commitment of less than 1,800 hours/year may be accredited for objective reasons such as retirement, disability, plurality of activities or temporary closure of the operation, the effective time dedicated to the activity will be calculated.

   In these cases, for quantifying the management, organisation and planning tasks of the activity and, in general, those inherent to the ownership of the same will be counted on the owner of the activity in 0.25 people/year, except when an effective commitment is proven to be higher or lower.

2. Spouse and minor children of the employer:

   The spouse and children of the holder of the activity that live with him/her will be counted as a non-salaried person, when they work in the activity, at least 1,800 hours/year.

   When the number of hours of work per year is less than 1,800, the amount of the non-salaried person will be estimated to be the proportion between the number of hours actually worked in the year and 1,800.

   The number of units in the "Non-salaried staff" module will be expressed with two decimal places.

   Important: Non-salaried staff with a degree of disability of 33 per cent or more will be counted at 100 per 75. 100 For these purposes, the situation in the date of accrual of the tax will be taken into account (usually on 31 December).

B. Special rule for calculating the spouse and minor children of the employer

Notwithstanding the above for 2020, and taking into account that, as a result of the reduction for the days of the state of alarm, and , where applicable, suspension of activity established in article 11,1 of Royal Decree-Law 35/2020, the holder of the activity is not to be computed in no case, in addition to the exceptional and contextual context of this Royal Decree-Law and its purpose, it will be applicable the reduction of 50 per 100 of the spouse, provided that the remaining requirements are met.
