Religious practice and inherent requirements of the job

The tension between religious beliefs and workplace demands was addressed in the decision of the Labour Appeal Court (LAC) in Sun International Management Limited v Sayiti (JA13/23) ZALCJHB 411 (21 October 2024).

The CC held that the taxpayer, Coronation Investment Management SA (Pty) Ltd, had a foreign business establishment (FBE) in Ireland despite the Irish business outsourcing some of its functions. As a result, the CC held that the taxpayer was exempt from section 9D of the Income Tax Act 58 of 1962 (ITA), so that the (net) income of its Irish subsidiary, which is a controlled foreign company (CFC) under section 9D, was not subject to tax in South Africa.
