Sažetak
Personal income tax (PIT) and social security contributions (SSC) play a significant role in the tax systems. Since both of them affect employers as well as employees, it is important to analyse the labor costs paid by the employer (gross wage) and the net wage received by an employee i.e. the tax wedge. High labour costs are often blamed for high levels of unemployment and an increase in the tax wedge may lead to increase in labour costs and indirectly the level of unemployment. Using the OECD methodology this paper assesses the characteristics of the tax wedge and the tax wedge policy in Croatia in the period from 2000 to 2014.
