CIPP update

Events NATIONAL PAYROLL Week (NPW) has been and gone in the blink of an eye and was a huge success! We hope you enjoyed the events as much as we did! You can see more NPW content online here: http://ow.ly/frYZ30rTAu7, and relive the highlights in this month’s magazine. A huge thanks to all of you who helped make the week a huge success and, of course, thank you to this year’s sponsors. As our Annual Conference and Exhibition is now here, we look forward to seeing you all at the online events and networking sessions. Again, you can find out more information online, at http://ow.ly/eD8n30rTAfi. Look out for the highlights in the November magazine supplement.

Summer sizzler ON 15 SEPTEMBER 2021, the CIPP hosted an outdoor barbecue, along with games, to raise funds for charity and to thank staff for their hard work over the past year. Multiple burgers and hot dogs were consumed, as the competitive natures of some of the team came out during a Mario Kart tournament. At the time of writing, £307 had been raised for the charities Solihull and Warwickshire Blood Bikes and the Rape and Sexual Violence Project. There was still some delicious cake for sale at this point, which could boost the final figure higher. The CIPP intends to continue putting on events for employees and to raise funds that go towards important causes. Should members enjoy the platform and wish to access its full features, including downloadable resources, they can receive a 20% discount on subscription of the full version. Look in the Membership Offers section of the MyCIPP area of the website. This book also contains the Off-Payroll Tax Handbook , which is a useful guide to the tax and legal implications of the off-payroll working rules. It contains examples, case studies and charts to demonstrate how public and private sector rules apply, and reflects the changes implemented from April 2021. Online access for associate, full, fellow and Chartered members, is available in the membership offers section of the My CIPP area of the website. The second of the new membership opportunities, available across all membership levels, is access to the Croner-i HR-inform Lite platform. Members can now access a wealth of human resources information on one comprehensive online platform, assisting with the management and recruitment of staff. New membership benefits TWO NEW online membership benefits have been added this year, at no extra cost, to support associate members and above with their knowledge and job roles. The first of the new membership benefits is the Payroll Management Book . An essential resource for payroll professionals, the book is packed full of best practice information, relating to topics such as the recruitment and retention of staff, project planning and audits. It also provides guidance on the day-to-day issues that impact payroll departments.

Congratulations to the newly accredited PAS organisations THE CIPP’s Payroll Assurance Scheme (PAS) is designed to test payroll processes in relation to payroll processing and compliance,

● Access Group UK ● BDO LLP ● East Midlands Shared Services

along with people skills and development opportunities. One of the most important elements is ensuring business continuity plans are in place and effective, should they be required. Well done to all organisations that have achieved this and been able to put those plans into action, given the events of the past eighteen months. Special congratulations to our recently accredited organisations:

Ken Pullar, CIPP chief executive officer, said: “Never has it been more important for businesses to have good payroll processes, knowledge and skills that enable them to implement new government legislation and guidance quickly. Congratulations to those organisations that have recently demonstrated just that.” Email compliance@cipp.org.uk for more information on PAS.
