Overview

The final changes to the payroll-related tax laws for the new tax year have been issued for implementation on 1 March 2026.  Hopefully, Budget 2026 will include some interesting proposals to change payroll-related laws.

Stay informed on payroll changes by attending this morning webinar.

Key topics to be discussed include:

• Changes to the Definition of the Remuneration Proxy and how it affects payroll tax calculations
• An overview of the requirements for the 2026 Final and 2027 Interim tax certificates.
• Compliant Administration of ‘Refunds’ – what does it mean in practice?
• Key judgements on Employment Equity sectoral targets and on gender-related discrimination in UIF maternity benefits and leave.
• The latest information available on Employment Equity, UIF, the Compensation Fund, and SARS.
• Budget 2026 discussed

We expect other changes to unfold, and these will be included in the webinar presentation, giving you hot-off-the-press information.

As usual, we will have ample time for questions at the end.  You will also receive the access to the slides and a comprehensive workbook for later reference purposes.
