Key findings from the study:

  • 34% only focus on payment details when it’s time to file their taxes
  • 23% would feel uncomfortable asking their employer to explain income deduction details on their pay statement
  • 31% say they are interested in ‘payment on demand’ 
  • 35% find reviewing their pay information daunting
