Relevance to Auditors, Independent Reviewers & Accountants:

The COIDA is yet another piece of legislation that your clients must comply with, and which you must assess compliance with. If they don’t comply with the relevant laws and regulations, you have certain reporting obligations in terms of NOCLAR (NOn-Compliance with Laws And Regulations) – this could include reporting to management, qualifying your audit opinion, reporting a Reportable Irregularity, etc.
Accountants, Auditors and Tax Practitioners may assist employers to complete their annual Return of Earnings, and thus should be aware of the latest thresholds and submission deadlines.
As an employer, you also need to comply with the COIDA in your workplace, and submit your own Return of Earnings.

Relevance to Your clients:

An entity (company or close corporation) has a duty to comply with the COIDA, otherwise they could be held liable.
An employer has a duty to submit the annual return of earnings.
