In Uruguay, social security deductions made by employees are considered deductible for the purpose of calculating taxable income. This means that the amounts contributed towards social security by employees can be subtracted from their gross income before determining the amount of income tax owed. This provision encourages participation in the social security system and effectively lowers the taxable income of employees, thereby reducing their overall tax liability.
