Will I be paid out my full provident fund after March 2015?


Question:

Hello What happens if I get retrenched from work after 01/03/2015, will I be paid out my full provident fund?

Answer:

Yes, per the current rules, you will still be paid your full provident fund (net of tax). Treasury is contemplating compulsory preservation pre-retirement, but your vested rights (your provident fund balance on the date this new law may come in, and any subsequent return thereon) will in any event be protected (ie fall under the old rules).
