When Employees Pay Less than the NIC Certificate

When Employees Pay Less than the NIC Course

Arrangements for pension-related salary sacrifice have become common over the years. They benefit employers and employees alike; however, certain measures should be taken into account when making the arrangements for protection. Bonus or salary sacrifice arrangements changed in April 2017. However, arrangements related to pensions and related advice, cycle-to-work and childcare under employer support were exempt from the changes.

This course covers salary sacrifices associated with pension contributions. Firstly, we define the term salary sacrifice and illustrate how it works.

The course states various tax-exempted benefits that can also be used with the arrangement.

Next, it explains in detail how salary sacrifice can benefit both employers and employees. It also covers how the arrangement can impact other employee benefits.

The course goes on to explain the role of employee agreement or consent in salary sacrifice. It explains the role of the employer and employee in implementing salary sacrifice and what usually happens. The role of HMRC and pension scheme trustees are also covered.

Finally, we provide information on defined contribution and personal pension and how it can be used with the arrangement.

Very interesting topics, I feel like I have expanded my knowledge and have more of an understanding and can use the techniques I have learnt professionally. I feel more confident in my ability!

I enjoyed the videos of the makeup application and thought the flow of the course was very well structured which made it easy to follow. It had me excited to do more and complete next stages as it was in bite size chunks.

I am very happy with the programme thoroughly enjoyed it I wish it was longer so I could learn more. Thank you for the course!

I personally loved this course because I'm planning my own wedding for 2018 but wanted to know so much more about the topic. I found out so much more than my own personal knowledge and walked away feeling much more confident with small details I would have never even thought about.

I would recommend this course to anyone planning their wedding, or helping a friend plan their wedding or wanting to start their own wedding planning business - each module is so informative that you don't feel that you haven't learned all that you need to know to hit the floor running.

There are 24 modules to complete in this course and each module is so helpful and easy to understand, I was not left with one question due to how full of detail and how well presented the module and course is. Definitely give this course a go to broaden your qualifications and knowledge!

Thank you
