Domestically, measures in the Budget, such as a rise in National Insurance paid by employers, has led to fears that the extra cost could be passed on in higher prices or fewer jobs.

Changes announced in the Budget mean that, from next April, employers would have to pay NI at 15% on salaries above £5,000, instead of the current 13.8% on salaries above £9,100.

“Instead, in situations where employers have some market power, higher minimum wages can raise employment.”

To apply, a person must show a letter issued by a government agency naming the worker’s employers as the subject of an investigation and that specifies the period covered by the inquiry.

Fortunately, employers can dramatically reduce this spending while improving both the quality of care and relief from pain their employees receive.
