Published Date: 3 May 2007

 
With unemployment at record lows and with capacity constraints becoming a key issue it is essential for employers to attract and retain key employees. Employee Share and Option Plans are becoming an essential component of the package an employer will offer. For many employees these are regarded as a windfall.

This presentation highlights the tax issues relating to these plans and some of the opportunities that may arise.
