for more information on how to make a workplace giving donation to one of our DGR funds.
A benefit of workplace giving is that you do not need to collate (and the funds are not required to issue) DGR receipts. (Your employer may, however, request a receipt from the DGR fund.) Workplace giving is optional. Both the employee and the employer must agree to participate.
Completing income tax returns
Individual income tax returns are not affected by workplace giving.
Donations made under a workplace giving arrangement and donations made directly to a DGR fund are completed in the same way on the income tax return as each other. For workplace giving, the donation total is shown on the donor's annual PAYG payment summary. The donor can simply claim a tax deduction for this amount.
