CIPP update
The future of News Online THE CIPP’s policy and research team is dedicated to providing you with any news and developments that impact you – the payroll professionals – and the roles you carry out. The team also wants to ensure that it continuously improves the content that is sent out to you, as we appreciate that payroll departments are increasingly busy, particularly given the events of the past eighteen months. Historically, we have provided the option of receiving News Online on either a daily or a weekly basis. From 17 November, News Online will be distributed weekly. It is hoped that this will help to alleviate some of the pressure on those who work in payroll, whose inboxes are most possibly already full to the brim. The weekly newsletter will be sent out each Wednesday and will contain a round-up of the key information from that week that you need to know. You will not miss out on any of the breaking developments in the industry, as the team continue to publish information of this nature as soon as it happens – so keep an eye on those inboxes. CORRECTION UNFORTUNATELY, THERE was an error in the October 2021 issue of Professional . Within Payroll News , we stated: “The initial increase will be collected via National Insurance contributions (NICs), but then it will be ringfenced out as a separate health and social care levy in tax year 2021/22”. It should have read that the separate health and social care levy will be ringfenced out in tax year 2023/24. The online version of the magazine has been amended so that this now reads correctly, but unfortunately the printed copies were distributed including the erroneous text. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Congratulations to the newly accredited PAS organisations
THE CIPP’s Payroll Assurance 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 the events over the last eighteen months, 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 organisations:
Benchmarking survey report
THE HIGHLY anticipated annual benchmarking report from the CIPP is now available to full, fellow and Chartered members, and to those who assisted us in our research by completing the survey. The report, compiled from the results of the survey, can be utilised as a tool to highlight the current productivity of your payroll team in comparison with the wider market. It also provides insights into current salaries and benefits offered for various payroll roles, to establish whether your company is operating competitively or not. The report is an annual membership benefit for full members and above, so if you would like to upgrade your membership, then simply email: membership@cipp.org.uk . The report is also available to those who completed the survey to thank them for their participation. If you are eligible to access the survey, you can view it here: http://ow.ly/RlbW30rXR2t.

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.” To find out how the PAS can benefit your organisation, email compliance@cipp.org.uk .
