It’s the annual declaration every South African employer makes to the Compensation Fund. You tell them how much you paid your employees over the year, they tell you what your Compensation Fund contribution is, and you pay it. In return, your employees are covered if they’re injured at work — and you get a Letter of Good Standing you can show to clients, banks, and tender boards.
If you genuinely have nobody on payroll (including no working directors taking a salary), you don’t need to file. But if you’ve ever registered with the Compensation Fund, it’s worth running a free LoGS check first so you know where you stand.
A 10% penalty is added to your assessment automatically, plus monthly interest until you pay. Your Letter of Good Standing is suspended, which means any tender or contract requiring proof of compliance is off the table until you sort it out.
