Payroll for carers
CARER PAYROLL
CARER PAYROLL
We appreciate that many families now choose to arrange a Carer privately for their loved ones, and find themselves in the difficult position of not only having to find a Carer that is a good fit for both the family and person receiving care, but having to put payroll in place. It might be the first time that you’ve encountered payroll from the perspective of being the employer, and the statutory responsibilities that come with hiring a Carer maybe somewhere between unknown and overwhelming.
Choose PayrollAbility for Carer Payroll
One conversation with us will give you some clarity around your responsibilities, and outline what we do, and how we can take care of that responsibility for you, whilst keeping you informed of progress and ensuring your compliance with HMRC, employment law and if required, The Pensions Regulator.
As with everything we do, we’re here to make things simple. After a chat about working hours and pay your Carer will receive, we can guide you through holiday monitoring, employment contracts, whether you need a auto enrolment workplace pension, and answer any other questions that you have.
Getting Started
If you’re then happy to proceed, we’ll forward our Letter of Engagement and GDPR Addendum in an email that asks for a few more facts about how and when you plan to pay your Carer, and whether we’re looking after things like holiday monitoring and auto enrolment.
There will also be a link to the HMRC New Starter form, which your Carer employee will need to complete. These documents are then returned to us by email.
Its likely you haven’t yet registered for a PAYE scheme with HMRC, so we’ll get on with this straight away and we’ll begin payroll set-up payroll at this point.
Throughout the process we expect you’ll have questions and are on hand to walk you through things such as national minimum wage, how tax and national insurance are calculated, and to help you answer any questions your new Carer or candidate has.
