    I wonder where they get these funny amounts from. I mean who earns R10,966 or R 12,478 a month. Everybody in the real world knows a round number and can even hold round numbers in their head to be useful in giving advise. Who is ever going to remember an odd number that does not make sense?

    I believe it's based on an average income for qualified artisans.

    Question UIF

    I am a Zimbabwean permanently employed in SA. I would like to find out if i should pay UIF as i only contribute PAYE. I am willing to pay UIF. My employer never mentioned UIF to me. I am wondering if the Company is running away from the 1% they should add or there is more to it?

    Although UIF is a waste of time, they/you should be paying it. Is 1% being deducted from your salary at the moment? If it is, they are probably paying it - just ask.

    From what I understand, UIF is worked on total remuneration. It is a bit of a pain, because when paying UIF online I have to work out a new salary every month - as I give frequent bonuses -it really bugs me that there is not a "standard" salary and a "extra remuneration" place on UIF's website.

    Try to get help from anyone at the UIF is useless - it's, at usual, a joke. When I first registered I told them I had to backdate a few employees - thier response - just send a cheque. I put in all the figures for when they started and haven't heard anything since. I am not wasting any more of my time with them - IMO this is just another useless stealth tax.

    At the moment I am getting sent details of another company with a similar name to mine...employees details, id numbers and wages..spoke to the UIF, even though it's their cock up they do not want to take responsibility. I just send the letters back RTS.

    Useless
