There are some important changes to employment law coming into
force in April 2019, including new rules on itemised payslips and
increases to national minimum wage rates and minimum auto-enrolment
pension contributions. We set out the key changes for employers to
be aware of below.
Payslips
From 6 April 2019, all workers will have the right to be
provided with an itemised pay statement and be able to enforce that
right in an employment tribunal. In addition, those who work varied
hours and whose pay varies as a consequence of the time worked must
be given itemised payslips, showing either:
- the total number of hours worked,
or
- itemised figures for the different
types of work done and/or the different rates of pay.
