| dc.description.abstract | Many working Ugandans are faced with a challenge of not being able to save as a result of the harsh reality of having to support their families financially. Though most studies have concentrated on internal job related factors as drivers of employee savings, this study seeks to assess employee savings in relation to Black tax, an external factor. The study was based on working staff in schools in Mukono municipality. The main aim of the research was to establish the impact of black tax on employee savings, particularly focusing on the staff working in our lady of Africa schools.The study employed across sectional research design, using the qualitative and quantitative approaches. The quantitative research was conducted using a questionnaire formulated with open and closed ended questions, these were used to collect data from 60 respondents, as the sample size. The analysis of data was conducted and the tests of the relationship among the variables was done. The results indicated moderate perceived impact of black tax on saving behavior (overall mean = 3.870), moderate experience of common forms (overall mean = 3.551), and moderate use of strategies (overall mean = 3.384). Key items with high agreement included family support reducing savings, sibling support, and encouraging family independence. No major demographic differences were observed in the patterns. The report further presents in chapter five, the discussions of these major findings, together with the conclusions and recommendations in relation to the conclusions and then the areas of further research to advance the study by any other interested scholars. | |
