What consequences of the new tax incentives implemented by the Australian government on the work load of Australian accounting firms ?
More than half of all accounting practices surveyed (*) said they have seen an increase in workload, the highest across all industries.
“As an accountant in practice, I am absolutely deluged by client queries and requests for assistance. Deadlines are a major issue as all normal work has been pushed back as I deal with the COVID-19 emergency, both from a staff management issue as they deal with working from home and from a client perspective,”

The recent measures decided by the Australian Government in October, to reduce income tax for companies and individuals as well as the new incentives measures to hire unemployed people or apprentice, are not going in the direction of a lower workload.
