English term or phrase: incidence of actual tax
Aus einem US Arbeitsvertrag für Auslandseinsätze:

The employee has to comply with the tax laws of both his home country and host country. The employer is, however, aiming to minimize the incidence of actual tax.

In Leo und Wikipedia finde ich tax incidence = Steuerinzidenz, der Begriff sagt mir aber wenig.

Ist hier nicht vielleicht schlicht und einfach gemeint:

Der Arbeitnehmer muss die Steuergesetze sowohl des Heimatlandes als auch des Gastlandes befolgen. Der Arbeitgeber bemüht sich jedoch, die tatsächliche anfallende Steuerlast so gering wie möglich zu halten.

Kann das jemand bestätigen?

Reference: tatsächlich anfallende Steuerlast = m.E. richtig

Reference information:
The terms "tax incidence" and "tax burden" are thrown around rather loosely in the economic literature and in the popular press. Some authors use them interchangeably for any of several concepts of the effect of a tax. Some authors use them for separate concepts, but different authors do not agree as to which term means which concept. This paper will seek to distinguish clearly among several distinct concepts of "incidence" of a tax and to reserve a single term for each.
