Hi Everyone 

The proposed relief measures for Employment Tax Incentives (ETI) that came into effect on 1 August 2021, were effective for a 4-month period only until 30 November 2021.

These reliefs must not be included in the Employment Tax Incentive submissions and claims as from 1 December 2021. 

The following ETI tables must be effective again from 1 December 2021: 

It is important to take note of the following:

• All customers must install this patch to update the ETI headings regardless of whether the ETI Relief patch was applied or not. This will ensure that headings are consistent across all environments.
• The attached patch(es) must be installed before the December pay run.  This is to ensure that the ETI amounts for December will calculate correctly when the ETI relief no longer applies.
• A total recalculation should not be performed to backdate the ETI totals for August, September, October and November once the patch is integrated. Please see the attached document for more information.
