Statutory Bereavement  (NP-471)

New functionality has been created to pay and report bereavement leave as set out in legislation commencing April 2020. Records can be added through the Absence → Absence Details screen and reported on in the standard suite of reports. The figures will feed through to the required fields on the EPS and FPS. 

Employment Allowance Changes  (NP-472)

From April 2020 Employment Allowance can only be claimed if total qualifying employers’ (secondary) Class 1 NICs liabilities in the tax year before the year of a claim was less than £100,000. Also from April the allowance is to be operated as de minimis State aid.
