| (1) | Table One is the scale of benefits to which a contributor may be entitled. A contributor’s monthly rate of remuneration is set out in column 1. The percentage of the contributor’s monthly income that will be paid as a benefit is set out in column 2. The actual benefit payable in Rand terms is set out in column 3. |
| (2) | Benefits below the transitional income level are earnings-related and fall as a proportion of income as income rises. |
| (3) | Contributors and employers of contributors earning above the income threshold of R97 188 per annum shall contribute 1 % of the threshold and such income contributors shall receive benefits payable at this threshold level. |
