Posted 27 August 2013

Say a company has 100 employees and the employer turnover is over R20 million per annum, if employer is planning to contribute 50% in medical aid and retirement fund to his employees, how much of a tax deduction does the employer get?

The employer will get a full deduction for any staff related costs which can be used to offset again the company income.
