CIPP Payslip Statistics Survey: A final call! 18 December 2019
There is still time to have your say and contribute to the acclaimed Payslip Statistics Survey, produced by the CIPP’s Policy team, which has been in circulation for over a decade and was first introduced in 2008.
The survey poses questions relating to pay frequencies and methods but also to the payslip distribution methods that employers use today, to evaluate current pay trends that are prevalent within the UK. This edition also includes some additional questions that address the upcoming reforms to IR35, which will be rolled out in April 2020, as this is a topic which has received considerable coverage for a while now. December is renowned for being one of the busiest periods in payroll departments and so we would like to thank our members and payroll professionals in advance for taking the time to respond to the survey. It should take approximately 15 minutes and is a task you could complete when you need to take a break from completing your payroll processing activities.

DLME Strategy 2020-2021: CIPP call for joined up gudiance to aid employer compliance 28 January 2020
In its submission to the Director of Labour Market Enforcement (DLME) Strategy 2020-2021: Call for Evidence, the CIPP calls for more comprehensive guidance that draws together common themes that are governed by different regulations and legislation in a bid to strengthen BEIS employer guidance on NMW, HMRC guidance on Tax and NIC reporting, and the HM Court and Tribunal Service on the subject of deductions permitted when administering Pay Attachments, which remains a common area of error.
Samantha Mann, CIPP senior policy and research officer, comments:
“The CIPP does not condone intentional non-compliance and criminal activity that is typically representative behaviour of the most egregious employers, however our response seeks to highlight just a small number of the key challenges that impact employers who strive to achieve full compliance, within the complex structure of legislation that governs worker rights and mirroring employer obligations across the UK. Employers who seek to provide fair working conditions and accurate take home pay to their employees and workers need robust guidance, support and education materials that are comprehensive and fit for purpose.”
Recommendations
Common themes
We have observed a slight increase in education delivery e.g. webinars through the HMRC Talking Points programme regarding NMW administration. However, anecdotal evidence suggests that experiences at the coalface when faced with an NMW inspection, reveal problem areas that could have been avoided had guidance and information been more ‘joined up’.
