I don't think that they or many other church employees pay any contributions. As an example, look how it's done for mission presidents.
Mission presidents are not salaried. However "necessary living expenses" are reimbursed.
These include
Food
Clothing
Household supplies
Family activities
Dry cleaning
Personal long distance calls
Gifts for Christmas, birthdays and anniversaries
Medical expenses, excluding cosmetic surgery
The cost of children serving full time missions
Round trip airfare for one yearly trip for all children that do not accompany the family, up to age 26
Full undergraduate tuition at any university or college
Rent
Maintainence, including grounds keeping outside the US
Telephone & internet
Utilities
A part time housekeeper or cook
An automobile, including all maintaince
It is specifically against church policy for a mission president to state they are paid for their services. The church tax office provides assistance and copies of tax court decisions to help navigate the technical areas of taxes, especially for US citizens.
This reimbursement is not tithed.
