Dear Belgian citizens,
Starting with Day 2,089 of the New World, Belgian Government and Congress will have to decide about a new tax: Work Tax.
What is Work Tax?
The Work Tax is similar with the current Income Tax but it will apply not only for employees but also for the ones that Work as Manager.
Who decides the level of this tax?
The Work Tax will be set by the Congress, and can have a value between 1% and 25%.
How is the Work Tax calculated for working as manager?
The tax will be calculated based on the average salary in their country in the last 30 days. The actual of the Work Tax is the percentage set by the Congress applied to the average salary.
Example:
In country A the average net salary paid in the last 30 days is 10 currency and the voted Work Tax for the country A is 10%. In this case, the value of the Work Tax for Work as Manager will be 1 local currency. The Work Tax will be applied for each company in which a player works as manager. Therefore if a citizen owns 5 companies and works as a manager in all of them, he will pay the value of the Work Tax multiplied by 5. If the citizen doesn’t have enough money to pay the Work Tax, he will not be able to start production in his companies.
How is the average salary calculated?
The average salary is calculated based on all the salaries paid by employers from a specific citizenship country in the last 30 days (the citizenship of their employees doesn’t matter, what matter is the citizenship of the employer).
How is the Work Tax calculated for working as an employee?
For the citizens who work as employees, the Work Tax will behave identically as the old Income Tax.
This new tax will provide countries with a supplementary source of funding and will give the Congressmen and Presidents a new tool that can help the countries make a step toward improving the state of the economy.
How high will the Work Tax be in Belgium?
Your MoHA Ernest Hemingway started the debate on the Work Tax in Congress already in advance and the Government is aiming to set it as low as 1% for now. We want to aid our company owners, not punish them for the good work they are doing.
What will be the consequences of the Work Tax?
We expect this Work Tax will create a ripple effect. At first prizes might rise again, although this should settle over some time, especially once the missions and Training War are over again.
We keep monitoring the effects of this new Tax and will adjust if need be. Soon, we will launch a big poll on employment and entrepreneurs in Belgium. With the input we get from our citizens, we will audit the Belgian economy, once the markets have settled again after the missions.
Kind regards,
Ernest Hemingway
Minister of Home Affairs.

Change the avatar of the org 😛.
but...but...it is the image of our enlightened leader and great dictator Jofroi? I would risk beheading if I did so!
Yes you would risk it from the population, but I will try to keep them quiet 😉
Our salary average is 8.14cc. At the proposed 1%, you will have to pay 0.0814*cc per time you work as a manager in any food or weapon raws, food or weapons company, + one time if you are working for an eBelgian employer. Using the example above, if you work in 5 companies that would mean you have to pay 0.407cc*, or 0.4884cc* if you also work for an eBelgian employer. If you work for a foreign employer, you pay the tax of the country where you are employed, and this tax then goes to the foreign countries treasury.
* figures can be rounded depending on how they do their calculations.
For info, if you work currently at the average salary of 8.14, for an eBelgian employer, you used to pay 6% which amounts to the same figure as working in 5 companies and an eBelgian employer, or 6 companies respectively with the proposed 1% work tax. If you have a higher salary, you can work in more companies for the same amount of tax as you paid before, depending on your salary
