Járulékokhoz

Járulékokhoz refers to contributions or levies paid by individuals and employers to various social security funds in Hungary. These contributions are a fundamental part of the Hungarian social security system, funding healthcare, pensions, unemployment benefits, and other social services.

The main types of járulékokhoz include health insurance contributions (egészségbiztosítási járulék), pension contributions (nyugdíjjárulék), and labor market contributions (munkaerőpiaci járulék). These are typically calculated as a percentage of an individual's gross salary. Both employees and employers are obligated to pay these contributions, although the rates and division of responsibility can vary.

For employees, the járulékokhoz are deducted directly from their gross wages. Employers then pay their share of the contributions in addition to the employee's portion. Self-employed individuals also have obligations to contribute to these funds based on their income. The revenue generated from these contributions is essential for the functioning of the state-run social security services, ensuring access to healthcare and providing financial support during periods of unemployment or retirement. The specific rates and regulations governing járulékokhoz are subject to change by Hungarian legislation.
