Ethical ref 2021_FBMSREC_012
The purpose of this study was to ascertain the impact of fringe benefits on Small and Medium Enterprises operating in the Cape Metropole. Data was collected from a sample of 100 participants, from 10 Small and Medium Enterprises operating within the Cape Metropole. A self-administered questionnaire was used as the data collection instrument to gather data from respondents. The primary data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics. Results of the study revealed that fringe benefits do affect the profitability of the business, as those perks reduce company profits due to higher incentives and remuneration. The study therefore recommends that Small and Medium Enterprises implement fringe benefits appropriately in order to foster a better working environment towards achieving the overall company objectives.
