They are often taken from the companies cost to hire you before you see the number.
e.g. if the company pays you 100K, they may have to pay the government 10K a year in tax which pays for the services, whereas in America you may be paid 120K and then have to fork over 20K for those services
(all numbers are made up obviously).
