The Impact of NI and Minimum Wage Increases on UK Businesses! Finance teams are gearing up to manage the dual impact of a rise in employer national insurance contributions and a boost in the national minimum wage. The warnings having being mentioned are of potential hiring freezes, wage adjustments, and a shift toward more independent contracting. Employer NI rises from 13.8% to 15% starting in April 2025. The earnings threshold for employers to pay national insurance will drop from £9,100 to £5,000. A 6.7% increase in the national minimum wage is expected. What Does This Mean for Businesses? Hiring Freezes: CFOs may pause hiring to offset increased labour costs. Wage Adjustments: Pay rises may be limited as businesses absorb additional costs. Shift to Independent Contractors: Companies are likely to increase reliance on self-employed talent, avoiding ongoing salary commitments and national insurance liabilities. The Bigger Picture: Small and midmarket businesses, already stretched by post-pandemic recovery, will feel the pinch the hardest! Businesses may face significant budget strain, especially those relying on minimum wage staff, forcing them to adjust pricing or rethink their staffing models altogether. In such an environment, finance leaders will need to balance cost management while maintaining talent retention and growth. How will businesses address these challenges in their organisation? #BusinessStrategy #Finance #NationalInsurance #HiringFreeze #WageAdjustment #IndependentContracting #AutumnBudget #UKBusiness

Pleased to contribute to the Financial Times analysis of the latest UK labour market data today. While employment levels are stable, other key indicators such as falling vacancies, slower wage growth and persistent long-term sickness suggest we may be seeing a sustained cooling in the jobs market. And it's important to note that the effects of the measures announced in the Budget - including the rise in employers' national insurance contributions and an increased minimum wage - are still to be felt. This highlights the tricky balancing act that the Government faces in restoring credibility to the public finances, boosting growth and increasing employment in secure and well paid jobs during the current Parliament. In this context, it's vital that the series of major reforms that the Government intends to deliver - including the Employment Rights Bill, the Get Britain Working White Paper and a new Industrial Strategy - align with one another to help more people to access secure and sustained employment into the future.

Ciara O'Brien of The Irish Times reporting on our pre-budget submission. Our number one ask for Budget 2025 is for adequate, proportional representation for SMEs at Government/social partner level. Despite making up 99.8% of total enterprises, and employing 60% of the workforce, SME employers are not represented on the Labour Employer Engagement Forum (LEEF). This is unsustainable in the long term, and leaves Government strategically blind where small business is concerned. https://lnkd.in/eJzHTfPZ #IrishBusiness #SME #MemberRepresentation
