HRDC (Human Resource Development Corporation) claims sound complicated until you’ve done one. Here’s what HR teams actually need to know before booking an HRDC-claimable wellness programme.
What’s actually claimable
A plain massage session on its own is not HRDC-claimable. What is claimable is a structured training programme — like Samarata’s “Burnout & Fatigue Recovery” course — delivered through a registered training provider with an approved course code.
The general process
- Confirm your company contributes to the HRD levy
- Get prior approval for the course before the training date
- Run the training with a registered provider and approved course code
- Submit the claim through your HRDC employer portal
Why this matters for HR budgets
Because the training is funded from a levy you’re already paying into, eligible sessions can reach your team at little to no net cost — turning what looks like a discretionary perk into a budget-neutral line item.
