In this month’s issue, we’re focusing on the topic of benefits – a vast area with so many different aspects to it. Provision of benefits within the area of payroll can differ greatly within organisations. However, in every organisation, whether they sit within human resources or payroll, teams should work together to ensure the organisation and its employees
receive the best benefits, which are as tax and National Insurance efficient as possible. The use of salary sacrifice schemes has reduced over the last few years, with HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) reducing the benefits that can be included in such schemes. However, the use of payrolling of benefits is increasing, as it’s a more efficient way of processing benefits, with employees paying the tax liability in real time. Benefits provided as part of the total reward package can range from pet / health insurance to retail discounts, to a day’s birthday leave and much more. Some organisations will provide a small number of benefits, whereas others will have a large range of options for employees to choose from. Depending on the role, a company car / car allowance can be an attractive benefit. The company car provision should be reviewed on a regular basis, as the cost to the employer and benefit to the employee can be greatly impacted due to the many factors which affect the calculation, including: l list price l type of fuel l CO2 emissions Take some time out this month to review the benefits on offer within your organisation and consider if any change is required. l electric / hybrid l age of the car l accessories.

It was good to be back! After three years, how fantastic it was to meet so many of you face-to-face at our flagship Annual Conference, Exhibition and Excellence Awards Ceremony at the Celtic Manor Resort, Newport, in the beautiful Welsh countryside. What an
atmosphere, as friends, old and new, met and, more importantly, developed their knowledge and skills, as our conference continues to provide continuous professional development (CPD) through detailed legislative and topical workshops. The plenary sessions introduced our global visitors, a further reminder of the all-reaching effect of the payroll family. Very importantly on this educational theme, if you attended the conference, remember to maintain your membership with the CIPP and keep your knowledge and skills up to date through logging your CPD, so you can use your well-earned letters after your name. November is a further time for celebration as we hold our Graduation Ceremony this month at the fabulous Symphony Hall in Birmingham, for those who have successfully completed our university accredited qualifications. Well-deserved congratulations to all! I look forward to meeting and celebrating with you. Also, during this month, we’re encouraging members to consider putting their names forward to be considered as non-executive directors onto the CIPP board. This is your opportunity to help shape the future direction of the Institute. Applications will be reviewed by our nominations and appeals committee and followed up with an interview during December. Voting by members then takes place early in 2023, so prior to your vote being cast, carefully review the criteria of each board applicant to ensure you are ably represented by board members with an appropriate mix of skills, representative of our industry. Finally, after what will be nearly eight very enjoyable years at the helm of the CIPP, I am to announce my retirement during 2023. You will note an advert on page five for the position of chief executive officer. Applications are to be received by 9 January 2023.
