enrolment within the industry, we will be changing the format of FoAE, making it a specialist interest group (SIG) within the CIPP’s portfolio of membership benefits. This means it will become a self-serving networking group with a dedicated online forum for discussions to take place. Following discussions, both internally and with the co-chairs/steering committee members, a contributing factor to this is that those yet to stage are more likely to gain their information from online sources than face to face events. The Institute feels that the online SIG format will receive better engagement than the traditional face to face events. The SIG is only available to paying CIPP members. This LinkedIn group will still be used so individuals who are not members of the CIPP can continue to gain support and advice from likeminded people free of charge. The CIPP is still fully involved with making automatic enrolment a success for all and is still actively involved in the policy side of things as well as providing training for automatic enrolment and re-enrolment.

PAS and PQP accreditations THE FOLLOWING organisations have all demonstrated that they are committed to payroll compliance through being successfully re-accredited via the CIPP’s Payroll Assurance Scheme (PAS): ● Accenture UK Ltd ● Hays ● Home and Communities Agency ● Midland and Lancashire CSU. In addition, the following have successfully been re-accredited through the CIPP’s Payroll Quality Partnership (PQP): ● Dataplan Ltd ● DB Cargo (UK) Ltd ● HSBC ● North Bristol NHS Trust ● Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust. The PAS accreditation provides a payroll department with assurance that its payroll and associated processes are fit for purpose and comply with appropriate government legislation, as well as highlighting potential risk areas such as non-compliance with the national minimum and living wage regulations. It also ensures that it has the right payroll activities in place and suitable processes for picking up and preparing for legislative changes and minimising the risks of payroll fraud within businesses. The Payroll Quality Partnership is the people module of PAS and demonstrates commitment to best practice in the learning and development of their payroll people. Commenting on the accreditations, Colin Jackson, CIPP’s head of consultancy, said: “We are thrilled to see so many organisations continuing to achieve the CIPP’s Payroll Assurance Scheme and demonstrating payroll compliance and best practice, especially in light of recent highly publicised news stories relating to non-compliance due to payroll errors. “The CIPP encourages all UK plc to engage in a payroll health check or accreditation such as the Payroll Assurance Scheme to ensure that they are at less risk of payroll fraud and non-compliance penalties from government, both of which can be extremely costly to organisations both financially and reputationally.” To find out more about the CIPPs Payroll Assurance Scheme, visit www.payrollcompliance.org.uk .
