Businesses receive a Work Levy Invoice from ACC during July each year. This is different to the ACC earner's levy which is a part of your employee's PAYE calculations and handled by Thankyou Payroll.

Info - Blue Block (1) Paying your yearly ACC Levy invoice is a business responsibility outside of payroll. Thankyou Payroll does not manage this business expense.

What is this ACC work levy?

All businesses pay levies to ACC to cover the cost of work-related injuries - providing cover for you, or your staff if there’s an accidental injury at work.

This invoice usually includes:

ACC workplace cover — the Work levy
