Employee Share Schemes & ESOP
Under the Employee Share Scheme (ESS) and Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) provisions, there are several ways to issue equity to employees without attracting taxes. We can help you establish effective strategies to grow your business while saving on wage costs, attract the crème de la crème of talent and reward your most loyal employees.
Benefits of Employee Share Schemes and ESOPs
Reduce Salary Costs
Recruiting and keeping high-performing talent can come with a hefty price tag. With an ESS or ESOP in place, you can increase remuneration without parting with precious cash. It's a great way to reduce costs in your business at a time when juggling working capital and compensating good talent can be difficult.
Retain Existing Talent
Employee Share Schemes can include a lock-up period that restricts employees from selling their shares or receiving income for a specified time. This ensures employees remain connected to the company and facilitates improved capacity and capability planning.
Empower Your People
Shift the mindset of your staff from employee to business owner. Holding a stake in the business can be used to encourage your staff to go beyond their daily tasks and pursue an active role in building the business.
Explore Tax Concessions
There are a few advantages that your business can enjoy when it comes to ESS tax concessions. These include the $1,000 up-front concession, Startup concession and tax-deferred arrangements. Download our Guide to Employee Share Schemes to learn more.
