The Tax Department introduced Pay as you Earn (PAYE) as a method of having tax deducted over the course of the year rather than attempting to deduct it one amount at the end of the year.
PAYE can be calculated in one of three ways:
1) FDS Forecast Method which has become the preferred method of calculating FDS.
2) Traditional (non FDS) Method, and
Only employees recruited during the course of the year should have their PAYE calculated using the Traditional Method of computing PAYE. In most instances employees should be having their PAYE calculated using FDS - Forecast Method'.
