Russian employees only pay personal income tax (NDFL). No social security, pension, or medical insurance is deducted from the employee's paycheck; these are covered entirely by the employer.
Employers pay a unified 30% social contribution up to the annual limit to the Social Fund of Russia (SFR), and 15.1% on amounts above the threshold, plus accident insurance (from 0.2%).
