Internships and your first job

Move from study to work with fewer surprises. These guides explain industrial training and graduate placements, then the registrations and deductions that come with a first formal job: a TIN from URA, your NSSF number, PAYE and your payslip. Rates and rules change, so check the date on each guide and the official sources it links.
