What is PAYG - Pay As You Go (Australia)?
Australia's system where employers withhold income tax from employee wages each pay cycle and remit it to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), ensuring workers pay their tax obligations progressively throughout the year rather than in a lump sum.
Why it matters in hiring
PAYG - Pay As You Go (Australia) comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
