About New Zealand Social Security Rate For Employees
In New Zealand there is no compulsory social security system; instead there is a voluntary savings scheme set up by the government named KiwiSaver. Employees can choose to contribute 3%, 4% or 8% of their gross salary. Trading Economics takes into account the highest percentage of contribution.
