[FAQs](https://guide.sprout.ph/sprout-payroll?hsLang=en#faqs) # Government-Mandated Benefits Guidelines On Sprout Payroll, **government-mandated benefits (SSS, PhilHealth, HDMF)** can be included in your payroll run--making payroll processing easier and quicker than ever before! Here, you can see how the system would compute for the contributions as well as how you can validate if these computations are correct and accurate.  ### **Compute Government-Mandated Benefits** Here's how to compute the government contributions during a payroll run: 1\. Go to the ***Payroll Runs*** tab and create a new payroll run by clicking the ***Create New Payroll*** button at the bottom of the page. ![](https://guide.sprout.ph/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jun-10-2025-05-58-44-3596-AM.png?width=564&height=103&name=image-png-Jun-10-2025-05-58-44-3596-AM.png) 2\. Make sure to tick the corresponding radio buttons and checkboxes under the ***Payroll Options*** section of the payroll run setup. ![](https://guide.sprout.ph/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jun-10-2025-05-59-08-7546-AM.png?width=321&height=148&name=image-png-Jun-10-2025-05-59-08-7546-AM.png) Note: If only ***Yes*** is selected for PHIC, SSS, and Pag-ibig, the deductions will be divided into 2 periods  ![](https://guide.sprout.ph/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jun-10-2025-06-00-43-6008-AM.png?width=309&height=135&name=image-png-Jun-10-2025-06-00-43-6008-AM.png) Note: If only ***Yes*** is selected as well as ***Full*** for PHIC, SSS, and Pag-ibig, the deductions are done once a month.    3\. Once you have selected the preferred deduction setup, you may process your payroll as you normally would.    ### **Validate the Government Deductions** Once the payroll has been processed, you can check if the computations are accurate based on the tables provided in the ***References*** (**Setup** \> **References**). The deductions would be based on the coverage type set on your ***Company* profile**.  \*Note: For **By Month (Custom)**, deductions will be based on the employee's monthly salary whereas if it's set to **By Period (Gross)**, the system will base their deductions on their actual income per period.  For the **SSS Contributions**, you may refer to the [**SSS Table**](https://www.sss.gov.ph/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Cir-2024-006-Employers-scaled.jpg) to check if the computation is correct. As for **PhilHealth contributions**, get the Monthly Basic Salary and multiply it by 5.00%. Finally, for the **HDMF contributions**, it will be a fixed deduction of 200 per month.
