About this skill

Calculating and processing wages and salaries, including hours, overtime, deductions, taxes and social premiums, and paying staff correctly and on time.

For candidates

Say how many employees you paid, how often (weekly, fortnightly, monthly) and in which system. In Aruba payroll includes social premiums such as AOV, AWW and AZV and wage tax; show you know how they work. Since 1 January 2026 the minimum wage is set per hour; see our guide to the hourly minimum wage.

For employers

Give headcount, pay frequency and the system. Accuracy matters more than speed here, so ask how the candidate checks a payroll run before it is paid.

How matching works

Matching is most reliable when both the profile and job listing use this same skill and any expected proficiency is set accurately.
