Thomson Reuters Events ANZ is pleased to present this CPD-accredited workshop on Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) compliance and salary packaging strategies for Not-for-Profit and Charity organisations.

Many Not-for-Profit and Charity employers overlook key FBT reporting requirements, despite being uniquely positioned to access valuable FBT exemptions, concessions, and rebates. These benefits are often embedded in salary packaging arrangements or provided directly to employees as fringe benefits.

This workshop is designed to support:

  • Accounting firms servicing the Not-for-Profit and Charity sector
  • Employer organisations including:

    • Not-for-Profits
    • Charities
    • Rebateable entities
    • Public and NFP Hospitals
    • Public Ambulance Services
    • Public Benevolent Institutions
    • Health Promotion Charities

Attendees will gain practical insights into FBT compliance, salary packaging, and how to maximise available tax concessions under current legislation. This is part of our commitment at Thomson Reuters Events ANZ to deliver high-quality, relevant training for professionals working in the finance, tax, and compliance space across Australia and New Zealand.
