Are you a New Employer? An introduction to PAYE and how to get started.
Do you know what to do as a new employer? Do you understand what your duties are as an employer? Do you know where to get help from?
Obviously, we would like you to use our services to run your payroll and help you with your employer duties, but we know that many employers either don’t have the resources or experience to outsource their payroll to a payroll bureau such as ourselves, or prefer and have both the resources and experience needed to run their own payroll in-house.
For those employers that are running their own payroll and all of this is new to them, there are a whole host of useful resources available to them and a good starting point for any employer should be HMRC, where you will find a whole host of useful guides, materials and webinars to help you such as the HMRC video which provides a useful guide to PAYE and how to get started.
