Today, the team at Acredo Accounting proudly joined South Africans across the country in celebrating Slipper Day 2026 in support of Reach For A Dream.

By swapping our formal shoes for comfortable slippers, we are standing in solidarity with children facing life-threatening illnesses and helping to make their dreams come true.

Every Slipper Day sticker purchased contributes towards creating moments of hope, joy, and inspiration for children and families navigating incredibly difficult circumstances. Reach For A Dream fulfils six dreams every day, reminding these brave young dreamers that there is always something worth hoping for.

At Acredo Accounting, we believe that making a difference starts with small actions that create meaningful impact. Today, we wore our slippers with pride, knowing that together we can help bring smiles, hope, and unforgettable memories to children who need them most.

A big thank you to Reach For A Dream for the incredible work they do and to everyone who supported this worthy cause.

Mental Health Support Should Be Practical — Not Just Words

Talking about mental health matters.

But action matters more.

Simple ways workplaces can support employees:
• Encourage use of leave
• Offer flexible work arrangements where possible
• Promote Employee Assistance Programs
• Normalise check-ins that go beyond “Are you done?”
• Train managers to recognise early warning signs

A supportive workplace doesn’t eliminate pressure.

It ensures people don’t carry it alone.

Healthy minds build sustainable businesses.

Some of the best news in the 2026 Budget is the proposed increases in the compulsory VAT registration threshold from R1 million to R2.3 million and in the voluntary registration threshold from R50,000 to R120,000, with effect from 1 April 2026.

This will immediately ease the disproportionate administrative burden and compliance cost on small businesses which would have had to register soon. What’s more, VAT registered businesses may apply to deregister for VAT if they no longer exceed the increased compulsory registration threshold on 1 April 2026.

Deregistering for VAT can improve cash flow. But it’s a decision that should not be taken without consulting us, as it can trigger substantial adverse tax consequences that might well convince you not to deregister.

Psychological Safety Starts at the Top

Employees don’t speak up in cultures where vulnerability is punished.

When leaders:
• Admit they don’t have all the answers
• Encourage open dialogue
• Respect personal boundaries
• Model healthy work habits
…they create psychological safety.

And psychological safety drives:
✔ Better performance
✔ More innovation
✔ Higher retention
✔ Stronger trust

Mental health is not just an HR topic.

It’s a leadership responsibility.

Growth feels like progress. Sales increase, staff numbers rise, and profit improves. Yet each of these shifts changes your tax position.

Here we examine how business expansion can trigger VAT obligations, higher provisional tax payments, payroll risk, structural strain, and cash flow pressure. Then we discuss what small business owners should address before growth creates avoidable tax exposure.

“As your profitability grows, your taxes will too. In fact, paying more taxes is an indicator that your business health is improving.” (Mike Michalowicz)

Busy ≠ Productive
Burned Out ≠ Successful

In many workplaces, exhaustion is celebrated.
Late nights are praised.
“Always available” is rewarded.

But burnout is not ambition.
It’s a warning sign.

Signs of burnout can include:
• Constant fatigue
• Reduced motivation
• Irritability
• Difficulty concentrating
• Emotional withdrawal

Sustainable performance beats short-term overdrive.

Let’s create environments where rest is respected, boundaries are honoured, and people don’t have to sacrifice their health to succeed.

We talk about performance.
We talk about targets.
We talk about growth.

But we don’t talk enough about mental health.

Behind every deadline is a human being.

Behind every email is someone managing pressure, expectations, and life outside of work.

Mental health challenges don’t always look obvious.

High performers can be struggling. Quiet employees can be overwhelmed. Leaders can be burned out.

This May, we’re starting the conversation.

Because strong businesses are built by supported people.

April tends to pass quickly, underscoring the year’s accelerating pace. In this month's newsletter, we focus on new VAT thresholds and when a company's growth may become a tax concern, emphasising the importance of staying informed. We also encourage our team and clients to recognise the positives, take necessary pauses, and ensure that consistent, high-quality support continues as team members take well-deserved leave.

“The 2026 Budget marks an important turning point for South Africa.” Dr Duncan Pieterse, Director-General, National Treasury.

Some of the best news in Budget 2026 is the real GDP growth of an estimated 1.4% for 2025, rising to 2% in 2028, and a debt ratio that will stabilise during this financial year and decline thereafter.

Inflation also declined to 3.2% in 2025 (from 4.4% in 2024), improving affordability for households and keeping interest rates down. At the same time, growth-enhancing reforms have progressed and confidence in South Africa’s fiscal outlook has improved, enabling a sovereign ratings upgrade and lower borrowing costs.

This May, Acredo Accounting is starting a conversation that matters: Healthy minds. Stronger workplaces.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing a 4-part series exploring:
• Why open conversations about mental health are essential
• Why burnout shouldn’t be worn as a badge of honour
• The role leadership plays in shaping workplace culture
• Practical steps to build healthier, more supportive teams

At Acredo Accounting, we believe that when people feel supported, businesses perform better.

Join us this May as we explore how to create workplaces where people—and performance—can truly thrive. 💬

Budget 2026 has brought long-overdue relief to taxpayers by not imposing VAT or income tax hikes and by adjusting the tables for tax rates, rebates, and credits to account for inflation. Of course, some tax hikes were always going to happen: inflation-linked increases on sin taxes took effect on 25 February already, and the fuel levies also increased.
