Reclaiming Your Statutory Payments
As an employer, you may already know that you can reclaim 92% of your statutory payments such as Maternity, Paternity and Adoption Pay. However, you may not be aware that you can actually claim 103%!
Yes, you heard correctly. If the total of your employees and employers Class 1 National Insurance in the previous year is less than £45,000, you can actually claim an additional 3% on top of the statutory payments you have to make.
Known as Small Employer’s Relief, it is a welcome relief to many employers. And if you know you will struggle to make statutory payments, you can even claim in advance for funding of the whole amount.
