I have a query re Directors in a company not having to pay Employers PRSI, and only paying Employees PRSI. Does this mean that the Directors have less entitlements as they are not paying Emplyers PRSI?
 
Is there some confusion in this question or am I the one that's confused.

Employers/Directors PRSI = Class S and has very limited benefits, pensions etc

Employees PRSI = Class A and has the full range of benefits
 
Under Class A the employer and the employee BOTH contribute for the various benefits outlined. Proprietory directors pay Class S which has limited benefits. The company of a proprietory director does not add to the Class S contribution, it is the director only that pays there.
 
Proprietary directors pay Class S same as self-employed. This does not count towards Unemployment Benefit or Contrib OAP
