Tax Treatment on Compensation for Loss of Employment

Overview

Many economists and financial experts predict the global recession to start in 2023. The global recession has led the organisation to cut costs by laying off employees. Those employees will receive money either in the form of compensation for loss of employment or gratuity.

Do you know whether the incomes received by the employees from loss of employment are taxable or exempted in Malaysia?

Key takeaways:

You will understand:

1. What is included in compensation for loss of employment?

2. What is the difference between compensation and gratuity?

3. What are the tax treatments?

4. Circumstances not subject to tax exemption.

Summary of learning

1. What is included in compensation for loss of employment?

According to Paragraph 13(1)(e) of Income Tax Act 1967, it includes:

a) Salary or wages in lieu of notice;

b) Compensation for breach of a contract of service;

c) Payments to obtain release from a contingent liability (employer’s obligation) under a contract of service;

d) Ex-gratia or contractual payments such as redundancy payments, severance pay, etc. made to employees who have become redundant for reasons beyond their control;

e) A payment in consideration of a covenant, arrangement or similar agreement restricting the activities of an employee in respect of engaging in an employment of a similar kind after termination of his employment.

f) Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) or Mutual Separation Scheme

2. What is the difference between compensation and gratuity?

It is important to differentiate whether the payment made to an employee is compensation or gratuity, as there will have different tax treatment.

a) Compensation for loss of employment

- Compensation is a payment given to the employees when they are laid off before the end of the service contract.

b) Gratuity

- Gratuity is a payment given to the employees when they resign or retire after serving for a long period of time. It is a lump sum amount that is presented to recognise an employee’s past services.

3. What are the tax treatments?

The compensation for loss of employment received by an employee is given a full or partial exemption as follows:

a) Full Exemption

A full exemption will be given if the reason for loss of employment is due to ill health.

Criteria: The health condition of the employee is required to be certified in writing by a Medical Board.

b) Partial Exemption

An exemption of RM10,000 is given for each completed year of service.

Criteria: The employee must work with the same employer or companies within the same group during the period.

4. Circumstances Not Subject to Tax Exemption

a) Reemployment implied under separation schemes:

If the separation scheme offers the employees reemployment with the same employer or any other employer, the compensation under the scheme does not qualify for an exemption.

b) Compensation for loss of employment for non-service director:

Non-service director is a director employed in the service of the Company that owns more than 5% of the ordinary shares of the Company.

Payments made by controlled companies to non-service director is not eligible for any tax exemption.

Keyman Insurance Tax Deduction Malaysia

Keyman Insurance Tax Deduction Malaysia
View Full Size

Quiz of the day - Keyman Insurance Tax Deductible Malaysia

1. Issue

KTP Tax Consultant Sdn Bhd can claim a tax deduction on Mr. Koh Teck Peng personal insurance in KTP Tax Consultants Sdn Bhd?

What is the personal tax impact on Mr. Koh Teck Peng?

In my opinion, the personal insurance paid by the Company for Mr. Koh is not tax allowable as Mr. Koh is control director of KTP Tax Consultants Sdn Bhd.

However, Mr. Koh has to declare the total amount of premium paid in his personal income tax which is taxed under paragraph 4(b) of the ITA

2. Fact

Company Tax impact

There are a number of requirements that must be met in order to claim a tax deduction.

According to Income Tax Act 1967 Section 33(1), expenses only can be deductible if it wholly and exclusively incurred in the generate of income is allowable as a tax deduction.

Refer to Paragraph 4 of Public Ruling No.2/2003 – Key Man Insurance, if the insurance meets the following two requirements, the premium payable on a term life policy or an accident policy which is no return after expiration policy is allowable as a deduction against gross income from a business:-

• The insurance has no element of investment

• beneficial of the insurance must remain with the employer or company not the “key-person” or his family

However, a whole life policy and endowment policy is deemed to have element of investment due to both of these policies have cash value that are redeemable.

Therefore, these two policies would be regarded as a capital asset of a Company and thus the premium paid on these policies would not be allowed for tax deduction under paragraph 5.

Connected person

Addition, if the premium paid for director insurance on life of that person who owns share in the company is not allow to claim tax deduction in controlled company. It is also not permitted to deduct the premium for a ''key-man'' insurance coverage on the life of a business partner or sole proprietor under paragraph 7.

Personal Tax Impact

Refer to paragraph 6.8 Insurance premiums - Public Ruling No.5/2019 – Perquisites From Employment

The amount of the annual premium paid by the Company on behalf of the employee (including his family, his nominee) is a perquisite to the employee and shall reported in employee Form EA.

By reporting in the Form EA in employee, this would results in the amount of annual insurance premium become taxable income for the employee.

Background information

Kayusar Sdn Bhd is a reputable timber company.

The Company entered into a sale and purchase agreement by selling a condominium unit at RM398,000.00 which was equal to the purchase price.

IRB opinion:

a) Section 25(2) of RPGT Act 1976 empowers DGIR to disregard and/or vary the transaction as the transaction has a direct effect on the chargeability of the tax.

b) DGIR charged the gain from the disposal of the condominium to the RPGT based on the market value determined by the Jabatan Penilaian dan Perkhidmatan Harta (JPPH).

The decision by The Court of Appeal

a) The Court of Appeal consistently found the Special Commission of Income Tax (SCIT) and High Court did not commit any error of law in their decision.

b) The responsibility was on the Company to prove that the market value determined by JPPH was inaccurate. However, the Company has failed to prove it.

c) The Company failed to discharge its obligation under its own name on 15 May 2014.

Therefore, the Company appeal is terminated with cost.
