SA COVID-19 BUSINESS SUPPORT PACKAGE

The South Australian Government has announced a Business Support Package for small businesses affected by the 7-day COVID-19 lockdown. 

The SA grants apply to those businesses with a payroll of less than $10 million, with an annual turnover of $75,000 or more (in 2020/21 or 2019/20) and whose turnover is reduced by at least 30 per cent over the 7 days from 20 July 2021 as a result of the lockdown.

The package includes:

  • $3,000 cash grant for eligible businesses with employees
  • $1,000 cash grant for eligible businesses without employees

The eligibility criteria for both grants are as follows (minus the requirement to employ people for a business without employees). As at 12.01am on Tuesday 20 July 2021, a business must:

  • Be located within South Australia
  • Have an annual turnover of $75,000 or more in 2020/21 or 2019/20 and be registered for GST
  • Employ people in South Australia
  • Have an Australia-wide payroll of less than $10 million in 2019/20
  • Have a valid ABN
  • Experience at least a 30 per cent reduction in turnover due to the restricted trading conditions, compared to the week prior.
