2015 Improvements associated with the dimension in the perspective of the wage payer

From 2015 onwards, the sizing of paying entities is outlined with a new criterion: the size of companies is defined by the number of employees and not by the number of recipients.

Employees who receive remuneration from more than one payer are distributed among the paying entities according to the weight of the remuneration, and are not counted in whole numbers in each paying entity.

The dimension by number of employees becomes a continuous distribution and there is a reduction in the size of the companies compared to the size that derives from considering the dimension as a discrete distribution according to the number of perceptions.
