What missing 30 June actually costs

The penalty is automatic. The lost contracts are permanent.

Automatic penalty

A 10% penalty is added to your Compensation Fund assessment the moment the window closes, plus monthly interest until paid.

Letter of Good Standing

Without a valid LoGS you cannot bid on a tender, sign with most large corporates, or renew government contracts. Buyers ask for it before they sign.

Exposure to employee claims

Not registered or not in good standing? If an employee is injured at work, you are personally liable for medical bills, lost wages, and disability — with no Compensation Fund cover.

Questions employers ask us

The honest answers.

What is a Return of Earnings, in plain English?

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.

I have no employees — do I still have to submit?

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.

What happens if I miss 30 June?

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.

Who actually submits the ROE?

ClearComply partners with a certified labour compliance firm that handles the submission directly with the Compensation Fund. ClearComply orchestrates the intake, payment, and tracking — and adds 21 free days of Basic so you stay on top of every other deadline this year.

What happens after my 21 free days of ClearComply Basic?

On day 22, your card is charged R49/month for ClearComply Basic — so your compliance calendar, automated reminders, and Comply AI keep running uninterrupted. You can cancel anytime from your dashboard in two clicks. No phone call, no email, no friction. We tell you exactly when the first charge will hit, and you’ll get a reminder email three days before it does.

What does ClearComply do with my data?

Your company details are used to complete the submission and to populate your compliance calendar. We never share it with third parties for marketing. POPIA-compliant from day one.
