Paying UIF (Compliance)
Register Your Domestic Workers for UIF
Did you know that if you have a domestic worker, gardener, nanny or any other person working for you more than 24 hours per month, you need to be registered as an employer with the Department of Labour, and contribute towards the fund?
​
We can assist you with your registration if you do not already have a registration number, as well as register all of your employees. We can also assist with facilitating arrears payments to get them up to date. Furthermore, we offer a monthly service of filing the payments on your behalf, so that you don’t have to worry about the admin going forward.
​
We ask a once-off admin fee of R250, and then you can choose which services you would like to add on:
​
-
Registration of employer with UIF – R250 once off
-
Registration of employees with UIF – R150 per employee, once off
-
Facilitating arrears payments – R200 per employee, per year of arrears
​
