An official form issued by a company which can be cashed at designated financial institutions.
Pay stub
Basically a receipt for record-keeping. Identifies all of the items and amounts used in calculating the final amount of the pay check.
Pay period
The time covered between pay checks. Can be daily (rare), weekly,monthly, bi-weekly (every 2 weeks), or bi-monthly (twice a month, usually in the middle and end of the month).
Pay rate
An agreed amount that the company pays per unit of time worked or unit of work done.
Gross
The base employee income for a specified period, based on pay rate. Can be:
Salary (a fixed amount, daily/weekly/monthly, which is adjusted based on number of days worked/not worked)
Wage (an hourly rate adjusted for the number of hours worked)
Piece (a certain amount for each unit of work done)
The gross income can also be adjusted for items such as commissions and bonuses.
Commissions
Money earned on a regular basis based on previous sales made.
Bonuses
Money paid by the company for various reasons, such as meeting objectives, productivity incentives, special events (e.g. Xmas), etc.
Deductions
Deductions are amounts retained by the company from your gross amount.
They are also commonly referred to as deductions at source. Some of the more common deductions are:
Income tax (federal, state(U.S.) or provincial(Canada), municipal in some locations)
Pension (employee contributions for retirement. A common plan in the United States is the 401K plan).
Medical (to pay for medical insurance. This is more common in
America. In Canada, every citizen is already covered by a global plan called Medicare, so the company plan most commonly found there is for dental care, which isn’t covered by Medicare)
Charity (donations made to a charity of the employee’s choice)
Net
The amount left after all deductions have been made from the gross income.

养老金（为退休后做的准备金。在美国常见的是401K计划）
医疗保险（为医疗保险所付的钱。这在美国更普通。在加拿大每一个公民都参加一个被称为医疗保健的全球计划，所以公司的医疗计划通常只是为医疗保健不覆盖的牙科）
