Chartered membership demonstrates the highest level of professional membership in the industry, recognising those individuals who have worked hard to raise the profile of payroll and their professional standing through education and continuing professional development. Chartered membership demonstrates to employers that you are committed to keeping up to date and raising the standards of best practice within the industry. Following the pilot launch of our new Chartered membership application process, applications for Chartered membership are temporarily closed while we make some exciting changes. If you are interested in being recognised as a Chartered member, email membership@cipp.org.uk to register your interest. Budget 2021 THE CIPP hopes that you are looking forward to a fresh start with the beginning of the new tax year and have absorbed the implications of this year’s Budget. A report can be found on page 28, but should you need to refresh your knowledge and remind yourself of the main points, remember to use our Budget 2021 hub which is available at https://www.cipp.org.uk/2021- budget-hub.html . The Budget hub contains the main highlights, news articles, features written by CIPP policy team officers Lora Murphy and Gemma Mullis, and a webcast reviewing the Budget and what it means for payroll professionals. Should members have any further questions or need more advice, then our Advisory Service – the ‘extra member’ of your payroll team – are only a phone call or email away. You can learn more about our Advisory Service team by reading our ‘Spotlight on’ feature on page 14, this month featuring payroll advisory officer Angela Adams.
Congratulations to the newly accredited PAS organisation THE CIPP’s Payroll Assurance
i
i
Scheme (PAS) is designed to test your payroll processes in relation to payroll processing, compliance and the 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. Given recent events, congratulations to all organisations that have achieved this accreditation and will have been able to put those plans into action. Special congratulations to our recently accredited organisation: ● Merryhill Accountancy Limited 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.” The Payroll Assurance Scheme is still operating, with assessments currently operating virtually. To find out how the Payroll Assurance Scheme can benefit your organisation, email compliance@cipp. org.uk. Payslip survey THANK YOU to all those who completed our payslip survey throughout March.
