Question

Oregon PFML is not taking the correct out of my employee checks

After many chats and phone calls, this tax is not being configured correctly.  I have it set up correctly in payroll settings but trying to explain to customer support that it is taking too much out of the checks they seem to think that it is correct. 

From State of Oregon fact sheet:

How much are contributions? Contributions are a percentage of wages.
The rate for 2023 is 1% of the first $132,900 in wages.
How are contributions shared between employers and
employees? Employees pay 60% of the set contribution rate, and employers pay
40%. For example, if an employee made $1,000 in wages, the employee would pay $6 and
the employer would pay $4 for this paycheck. Employers may choose to pay the employee
portion as a benefit for their employees

 

This last check of one employee was gross pay of $662 and the tax was figured at $46! After reading and explaining the problem I was told they are doing it as Oregon said to.....but that is false. Anyone else having this problem, or am I reading the tax wrong?
