News & Updates
Apprenticeship Levy
This levy is imposed at 0.5% on the total “pay bill” of the employer for 2017/18 and subsequent years. The starting point is to accurately calculate the “pay bill”, which is not necessarily the total amount of wages and salaries paid by the employer.
Immigration Skills Charge
This charge is designed to discourage employers hiring skilled workers from other countries. As it is currently not permissible to impose a restriction on workers moving to the UK from other EU or EEA member states, the charge only applies to workers from non-EEA countries.
