3The bold line is the main answer. Tap Copy next to any value to copy it.

13th month pay: Extra pay in the Philippines, required by law, equal to one-twelfth of the basic salary earned in the year.
Withholding tax: Income tax your employer takes from each payday and sends to the BIR for you, so you do not pay it all at once at year end.
Annualization / tax refund: At year end your employer recomputes your tax for the whole year. If too much was withheld you get a refund; if too little, the rest is deducted from your last payday. BIR Form 2316 is the certificate that shows it.
SIL (Service Incentive Leave): At least 5 days of paid leave a year that the law gives every employee after 1 year of service. Unused SIL is converted to cash.
