Greetings Friends of Oury Clark,

This month sees our intrepid adventurers jumping their way through the land of employment, hopefully reaping all the benefits and avoiding all the pitfalls.

Talking of pitfalls and benefits, the time is near for you to file P11Ds, by July the 6th to be precise. If you want to avoid common areas of confusion you might find our handy quick guide useful.

If you would prefer to have help from a real person rather than use a PDF to pick your way through the P11D rigmarole then get in touch with your usual contact or get in touch with us here.

The benefit of more time to get your benefits in kind in order.

You’ve no doubt seen the news that the UK government is allowing extra time to prepare for the introduction of mandatory payrolling for benefits in kind (BiKs) and taxable employment expenses.

No doubt that is a relief to most, but the change is coming and now is the ideal time to start preparing for it. If BiKs are on your mind, but you don’t know where to start with payrolling them our team can help.

They can advise you on all aspects of payroll and get you set up for the future. Giving you plenty of time to iron out any kinks and avoid any nasty, software based surprises at the last minute.

Book your free consultation with them here or talk to your usual contact.

Review your benefits. Keep your staff retention and recruitment competitive.

There is more to employee benefits than providing ice cream whilst the sun shines, though it is very nice when you do.

If you want to review your existing employee packages in order to make sure that you are creating or maintaining a competitive market position our Recruitment and Benefits teams can help.

You can get in touch with them on the links above so you can make sure that your team knows that you aren’t playing games when it comes to the benefits.

But what have entrepreneurs ever done for us?

In case you missed it, we released a cracking podcast with Daniel Priestley who asks “do not ask how entrepreneurs can be screwed by the country, but instead ask what can entrepreneurs do for you”*

*we paraphrase.
