    Exclamation Voluntary Retrenchment package - Tax implication

    Good Day All,

    I hope you can shed some light.

    If you are offered and accept a voluntary retrenchment package, what are the tax implications?

    Hope to hear from you soon.

    Thank you and kind regards,
    Igna

    In summary, there is a special tax table for your retrenchment package, where the first R500k is tax free, provided you did not own more than 5% of the shareholding in the company.
