The term 'PAY-STUB FIGURE' refers to a person who is responsible for calculating the amount of money an employee should receive in their paycheck. This figure is determined by taking into account the employee's NET salary, which is the amount of money they make after taxes and other deductions, and the number of HOURS they have worked. The pay-stub figure is then used to generate the employee's pay-stub, which is a document that outlines the employee's wages and deductions.
