I am extremely sorry that I was so careless as not to notice the "和". 个人所得税由公司代为扣缴 is so familiar to me, so my eyes screened out "和" automatically:) - yes, agree with Fang Sheng that it is a typo. Check with the client or just disregard it.
H. J. Zhang Mar 27, 2007:
The Chinese is correct.
Fang Sheng Mar 26, 2007:
Yeah, I think maybe it's a typo from the client? Anyway, if it's what it is, then just leave and put (sic) in there.

I'm confused about the 和, that's why I posted this question. If nobody is able to make any sense out of it, I will include it in translation notes.
Fang Sheng Mar 26, 2007:
It seems that 和 in the sentence doesn't really make sense: with it there, it looks like personal income AND tax of this company's employees shall be withheld by the company?

Shouldn't be just "personal income tax"?

I think it should be "personal income tax will be deducted from employee's salary directly by the company on behalf of teh taxation authority".
Just for your reference.

(leave it out)

Have to agree that 和 is either "sum" or a mistake. Either way, there is no point in translating it (or 个人, for that matter). Something like:

"The company withholds income tax on behalf of its employees"
