Dutch term

arbeidskorting

Dutch to English Bus/Financial Law: Taxation & Customs
Dit is een uitdrukking die voorkomt op een jaaropgaaf van een werkgever aan een werknemer over het ontvangen loon over het afgelopen jaar. Deze werknemer was in de WAO. Heeft iemand een goede uitdrukking voor arbeidskorting. Ik kan het in geen woordenboek vinden.

disagree jarry (X) : Labour credit is obviously a Dutch-based translation and is not appropriate in the circumstances. I would challenge the fact that anyone in the UK for instance would understand the meaning of this term.See my suggestion and comment below.

Employment relief / abatement / rebate

De arbeidskorting

De arbeidskorting is voor iedereen met inkomsten uit tegenwoordige dienstbetrekking of inkomsten uit overige werkzaamheden. Personen met een uitkering (bijvoorbeeld met een pensioen of WAO) hebben geen recht op de arbeidskorting. De werkgever houdt rekening met de arbeidskorting bij het vaststellen van de verschuldigde loonbelasting. De korting is namelijk in de witte tijdvaktabellen verwerkt.

De hoogte van de korting is afhankelijk van het inkomen en bedraagt maximaal ƒ 2.027,- per jaar, voor personen van 65 jaar en ouder maximaal ƒ 906,-.

I would recommend my suggested terms in preference to labour credit. This would be a term more likely to be used for some kind of tax relief granted to an EMPLOYER, not an employee.

The fact that the reference provided by David calls it the so-called labour credit says it all.

working person's allowance

This is the name given in the new Dutch tax system to a personal allowance for people who have derived income from "work" (i.e. inkomsten uit tegenwoordige dienstbetrekking, winst uit onderneming, resultaat overige werkzaamheden dat is behaald met het verrichten van arbeid).

It is in addition to the basic personal allowance (algemene heffingskorting).

See http://www.belastingdienst.nl/2001/aangifte2001/frame.htm -> Toelichting op uw aangifte -> Heffingskortingen - de arbeidskorting

In response to \"labour credit\", a tax credit reduces the amount of tax you pay, whereas an allowance entitles you to receive an amount without having to pay tax. It\'s a subtle difference, but a difference nevertheless.

agree Anna Carpendale : Agree, particularly on the difference between a credit and an allowance. Thanks.
