ADP Payroll Around The World13 Sep 2024

Payroll in the United Kingdom

The United Kingdom is a crucial launchpad for international businesses, with a globally renowned financial sector and home to the world’s most widely used legal system. While this makes the U.K. an appealing destination for multinationals, payroll professionals must also be aware of the country’s complex minimum wage and holiday pay laws as well as rapidly changing regulations.

We’re joined by ADP experts Sirsha Haldar and Ben May as they guide us through common compliance pitfalls and U.K. payroll regulations in this episode of Payroll Around the World. We’ll cover how minimum wage in the United Kingdom isn’t just about paying someone the correct hourly amount, and how holiday pay can quickly become confusing for seasonal and part-time workers. We also speak to Roberto, a minimum-wage employee at a cinema in London who takes on various roles at his job, which leads to regularly switching between different pay categories.
