message

We’re in May already and as time just passes by so quickly, we need to be focussed on our key deadlines. We must ensure we submit returns and process documents and payments, not just to our own internal deadlines, but also the statutory deadlines for HM Revenue and Customs. Payroll runs from period to period and works to strict deadlines all year round,

however at key times in the year we need to ensure we meet all our statutory return obligations. 31 May is the deadline for employees receiving a P60, and if you still have a manual process, you’ll need to consider delivery methods as the documents must be with employees by the deadline. As we continue to go through change, from statutory budget changes to internal changes, educating managers and the wider business on deadlines is critical for the payroll department. Being involved in change and planning implementation into the payroll calendar sets expectations and helps mitigate risk in a change project. Remember, as a valued member, the CIPP is here to help you, from training courses on year end activities to our Advisory Service. If you’re unsure of a process or deadline, please get in touch.

will support Jason as he transitions into the CEO role. I look forward to following the CIPP from a distance and continuing to see the ongoing success of this wonderful membership organisation, dedicated to payroll, pension and reward professionals. At this point, I’d like to reflect on how the CIPP and its trading subsidiary, IPP Education contribute to the membership base. Firstly, there’s a suite of topical training programmes on modern platforms as well as face-to-face delivery. This isn’t just to individuals but also to many organisations, where we prepare and present in-house sessions. Our qualifications portfolio is particularly relevant to all our professional members, including our online Level 3 Payroll Technician Certificate Advanced and Certificate in Pensions Administration. I believe our Level 4 / 5 Foundation Degree is, without question, a particular market leader. It’s gratifying to see many employers cite this qualification as a prerequisite to working for them. On top of this are our relationships with the University of Lincoln and Loughborough University, offering the Bachelor of Arts (BA) and Master of Science (MSc) respectively, to further enhance the careers of our members. And let’s not forget our role as an end point assessment organisation. We’ve become critical in taking the weighty responsibility for the apprentices’ final assessments against payroll apprenticeship requirements. There’s a robust membership structure in place with a huge range of benefits (financial and non- financial), to give members full support in their career journeys. From paying reduced rates for the key Payroll Update course through to receiving Professional magazine ten times a year, and of course, the number one benefit identified by members, access to the highly skilled Advisory Service team. The introduction of Chartered members was a real ‘feather in the cap’ for our professional members, elevating the profession to its rightful place. So, there we have a brief trip down memory lane, covering just a few aspects of life, and the CIPP and its successes. Ken Pullar FCIPP (ken.pullar@cipp.org.uk) Chief executive officer, CIPP
