Employment Tax Incentive

Through the Employment Tax Incentive, you can decrease the amount of pay-as-you-earn (PAYE) tax that you must pay to the South African Revenue Service. You can claim this incentive for two years per trainee.

  • How to claim:
    • Complete the Employment Tax Incentive field on your employer’s monthly submission (EMP201) to Sars

    • You can claim for every qualifying employee aged 18 to 29

The incentive is additional to other incentives for participation in workplace-based learning.
