Will I be in control of earnings and deductions?
It is perfectly possible to outsource the administration of the deductions on your staff’s salaries, to make it easier for you to keep accurate and verifiable records of every aspect of your employees’ earnings and payments. We at TLT Accountants can handle:
- Administration of leave

What are statutory registrations?
As an employer, you would need to register your company at SARS (the South African Revenue Service) for payroll taxes (Pay As You Earn – PAYE), at the Department of Labour for UIF (the Unemployment Insurance Fund) and the Compensation Commissioner for Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Diseases.This process, if not handled with properly, can be time consuming, difficult and stressful. By outsourcing these company-related registrations, we do all of these registrations for you. Over and above that, we will also submit the returns as required by SARS, the Department of Labour and the Compensation Commissioner.
