Does social security count as wages and benefits?

Social security is not wages and benefits. Wages and benefits include hourly wages, piecework wages, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, overtime wages and wages paid under special circumstances. However, social security is mandatory for employers and does not belong to wages and benefits.
