Definition

Tax is calculated using the cumulative method.
This means that tax free pay is apportioned over the year thereby allowing an amount of earnings tax free each pay period. So instead of one payment being taxed in isolation, all payments made so far this tax year are taken into account, the tax due is calculated, and the sum of tax that has been paid to date is deducted. What is left is the amount to be deducted from the employee this week or this month.
