- 3.Available Balance — The amount you can still use for future training claims (Contributions minus Claims).
HRDF Levy Calculation Formula
| Company Size | Levy Rate | Example | Annual Levy |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10–49 employees | 1% of monthly payroll | Monthly payroll RM100,000 = RM1,000/month levy | RM12,000/year |
| 50–99 employees | 1% of monthly payroll | Monthly payroll RM300,000 = RM3,000/month levy | RM36,000/year |
| 100–499 employees | 1% of monthly payroll | Monthly payroll RM800,000 = RM8,000/month levy | RM96,000/year |
| 500+ employees | 1% of monthly payroll | Monthly payroll RM2,000,000 = RM20,000/month levy | RM240,000/year |
| 5–9 employees (voluntary) | 0.5% of monthly payroll | Monthly payroll RM30,000 = RM150/month levy | RM1,800/year |

What to Do If Your Levy Balance Is Low
Prioritise high-impact training
Focus your remaining balance on mandatory compliance training or high-ROI programmes like leadership development and digital skills that directly impact business performance.
Choose cost-effective training formats
Consider half-day workshops, online training, or group sessions that accommodate more employees per programme to stretch your levy further.
Wait for monthly contribution top-up
Your levy balance increases every month with your payroll contribution. Plan larger training programmes for months when your accumulated balance is higher.
Verify no outstanding claims are pending
Check e-TRiS for any pending claims that may be holding up your balance. Follow up with HRD Corp on claims that have been under review for more than 30 days.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where exactly do I find my levy balance on e-TRiS?
After logging into e-TRiS at etris.hrdcorp.gov.my, your levy balance is displayed on the main dashboard under "Levy Statement" or "Levy Balance". You can also navigate to the Levy section in the left menu for a detailed statement.
How often is the levy balance updated?
Your levy balance on e-TRiS is updated monthly after your HRDF contribution is processed by KWSP/EPF. There may be a 1–2 week delay between payment and balance reflection. Claims approved are deducted from your balance within a few working days.
What happens if my levy balance is zero?
If your levy balance is zero, you cannot submit new training claims until more contributions are accumulated. Continue paying monthly levy contributions and your balance will build up. You may also check if there are pending claims that were deducted but not yet reimbursed.
Does HRDF levy expire at year end?
No, HRDF levy does NOT expire. Your accumulated balance carries forward from year to year. However, it is strategic to use your levy regularly for workforce development rather than letting it sit unused.
Can I get a refund of my HRDF levy?
No, HRDF levy contributions are non-refundable. Once paid, the funds can only be used for approved training claims. This is why it is important to plan regular training programmes to utilize your levy effectively.
How is the HRDF levy calculated?
HRDF levy is calculated at 1% of monthly payroll for companies with 10 or more employees in eligible sectors. It is collected through KWSP/EPF along with your monthly EPF contributions. Companies with 5–9 employees can register voluntarily at 0.5%.
