Practical guides for South African employers, HR managers and SDFs: how to claim back your levy, meet your SETA deadlines and get more from your training spend. If your payroll is over R500,000 a year, you already pay 1% to SARS every month. Here is how to get up to 20% of it back, and what most employers miss. The Workplace Skills Plan and Annual Training Report unlock your mandatory grant. Here is what each one is, what goes into them, and a simple timeline so you are never late. Skills Development is a priority element on the B-BBEE scorecard. Here is how training spend is measured, what counts, and how to keep the evidence your verifier will ask for. Without an SDF, nobody can submit your WSP and ATR, and your mandatory grant goes unclaimed. Here is what an SDF does, and whether to use someone in-house or outsource it. You will see PIVOTAL and non-PIVOTAL on every WSP and ATR. Here is what the terms mean, why SETAs care, and how to balance both in your training plan.
