I have done my payroll qualification but it was a couple of years ago now and our company outsource payroll, so haven't had much chance to put it into practice so I hope that somebody can help with my query regarding SSP.
Our company only pay SSP. One of our employees was off sick for only 3 days and so doesn't qualify for SSP. He is paid monthly. For arguments sake, lets say he is paid £400 per month and his daily rate of pay is £20.
As I understand it from my course notes, when you get to the screen in Sage Instant Payroll - Maintain Employees Pay, I would deduct £60 from £400 and only put £340 in the Payments Amount next to Salary.
If I then printed the Payment Summary forms for that month, Total Gross and Taxable Gross would be the same amount, i.e. £340 for that month.
The company who are doing our payroll are sending me payment summaries where the Total Gross is £400 and the Taxable Gross is £340 and the £60 is showing as Pre-Tax Deduction.
Nowhere in my course notes, does it say to record unpaid sick days as a Pre-Tax Deduction.
Please can someone clarify what is to happen here.
Many thanks
