employment income
Pay from work
Employment income is money received from working for an employer—wages, salaries, bonuses, and commissions.
It's distinguished from other income types like investment returns, rental income, or government benefits.
Tax systems typically treat employment income differently from capital gains or self-employment earnings: Most of her employment income comes from her nursing job.
