Application for SETA Grants
Mandatory and Discretionary Grants encourage businesses to plan and implement employee training and create job opportunities for unemployed people.
Who must pay
skills levies?
Every employer registered with SARS for PAYE and with an annual payroll (total salaries and wages including bonuses, commission, etc.) of more than R500 000, or 50 plus staff members, is required to pay skill levies. The employer’s contribution is calculated as 1% of the leviable amount, which is equivalent to the employee’s remuneration for PAYE purposes – in other words, the employee’s remuneration less any taxable income deductions.
WSP/ATR Plans
Let us help you
A Workplace Skills Plan (WSP) is a prerequisite should your business intend to maintain an exemplary B-BBEE scorecard and apply for a Mandatory or Discretionary grant. Mandatory Grant applications must be submitted annually by June 30th. A Mandatory Grant equals 20% of your 1% Skills Development Levy is paid directly to your business. Additional submission periods open for Discretionary Grants by the SETA. Companies may use the funds to reinvest in skills development by funding skills development institutions or paying stipends to learners.
