How to read the NoiPA payslip

An illustrated guide to help you navigate through the details of your NoiPA payslip, which contains information related to your monthly salary.

The NoiPA payslip

The payslip is an electronic document that can be downloaded from your personal area.
It provides detailed information about the salary of public sector employees. The payslip follows a standard structure, consisting of two main parts. It counts one or more pages depending on the amount of information presented.

  1. Summary Section: The first part contains summarised information.
  2. Detailed Elements: The second section provides details of the information summarised on the first page.

Let’s explore a concise guide to the payslip, useful to understand its various sections.

The first part of the payslip

To clarify, it is possible to divide the two parts of the payslip into different areas (sections). The first part, which provides an overview of the employee’s position, consists of the following four areas:

  1. Header area
  2. Upper information area
  3. Summary of Compensation Area
  4. Lower Information Area

Header area

The first area contains essential information, including the indicative payment information for the month and year of remuneration, as well as the payslip ID identified by conventional progressive numbering.

Area di intestazione

Upper information area

This section contains information about the employee’s personal situation, the relevant government agency, the legal-economic position of the worker, details of deductions, and payment items.

  • Employee personal Information: This box is crucial because it includes personal, tax, and residency data, along with a unique identification number (partita) used to identify employees within the NoiPA system.
  • Agency of affiliation: In addition to information about the administration of belonging and service location, this area specifies the office responsible for handling salary-related services.
  • Legal and economic position: The legal and economic position is the framework containing information that identifies the employee’s professional position and is necessary for calculating the entitled economic amount (e.g., professional qualification, affiliated pension fund, type of settlement - TFS or TFR, type of employment relationship, such ad full-time or part-time, fixed-term or indefinite).
  • Deduction details: This section reports the total deduction amount, which reduces the income tax for individuals (IRPEF).
  • Payment details: The last part of the upper information area indicates the currency due date and payment methods for the salary (e.g., bank account credit, IBAN code, branch address).

Summary of Compensation Area

In the subsequent section of the payslip, employees find summarised data related to compensation, including total amounts for:

  • Fixed components: Base salary and any additional allowances or retroactive payments.
  • Additional components such as FUA, overtime, or other various allowances.
  • Withholdings: Both tax-related and social security withholdings.
  • Tax and social security adjustments.
At the bottom of this section, the maximum assignable amount (the maximum portion of the salary that can be allocated for a loan through the “Cessione del Quinto”) is highlighted, along with gross and net totals for various items.

Lower Information Area

In the last part of the first section, progressive amounts, taxable income, and IRPEF (both for the current year, AC, which stands for Anno Corrente, and the previous year, AP, Anno Precedente) are reported. Additionally, in the right column, you’ll find the IRPEF tax rates: the maximum rate applies to compensation for the current year, while the average rate is used for calculations related to any retroactive payments and, in general, for compensation in the current year.

Area informativa inferiore

The Second Part of the Payslip

In the second part of the payslip (which often coincides with page number 2 of the document), in addition to the same information already reported in the header area, upper information area, and lower information area of the first part, employees also find additional detailed information related to compensation.

Compensation detail area

In the section entitled “Compensation detail data,” various items that make up the total amounts already reported in the “Summary of compensation” (present on the first page of the document) are illustrated. This allows employees to have a more precise and in-depth view of fixed components, additional components, withholdings, and tax and social security adjustments. In this section as well, gross, and net totals for different items are highlighted.

Assistance and support

Since the structure of information may vary slightly for different sectors, it is possible to contact the relevant administration representatives for further information. Additionally, employees can request support within NoiPA: assistance services are available in the dedicated Mondo NoiPA - Support section of the portal or by accessing their personal area.
