English term or phrase: PEN
Hallo zusammen,

nochmal die Gehaltsabrechnung aus UK:
unter den Punkten "year to date totals" und "this period totals" steht:

GROSS
TAXGP
TAX
***PEN*** (dahinter 0,00 Geldeinheiten)

Steht PEN für "Penalty"? Sind das dann die auf dt. Gehaltsabrechnung auch erwähnten Pfändungen?

Besten Dank nochmal für Eure Hilfe!!!

Explanation:
Not 100% sure of course, as it could be something company-specific, but I just had a look at a UK payslip and that is where the "pension contributions" are usually listed.

Unless it's actually an abbreviation for "Pension" as in "Pension scheme contributions".

Example sentence(s):
  • Permanent Employee Number

  -> My Apologies. Waht I wanted to express was that PEN stands for Pension.
