This webinar will confirm who is an employee (reflecting on the principles from multiple recent employee-contractor cases) and then look at benefits that are commonly supplied to employees. There are a range of options available for providing benefits to employees as part of their remuneration package that can be cost effective for an employer. We will work through the options, the taxation considerations and outcomes to assist in weighing up the alternatives. We will also discuss business related benefits that an employee receives and look at the taxation treatment of these.

During this webinar, we will work through these options with practical examples to illustrate how the tax rules work and assist you to guide your clients.
