In Panama, social security deductions made by employees are considered deductible expenses for the purpose of calculating taxable income. This means that the contributions employees make towards social security can reduce their gross taxable income, potentially lowering the amount of income tax owed. This deduction aligns with Panama's tax policies, designed to encourage participation in the social security system while providing a tax benefit to employees, thereby supporting their financial well-being.
