There is now a paper on HMRC’s web site detailing the additional pay information needed to be detailed on payslips to meet their new legal requirements. In simple terms if there is any part of a person’s pay that is calculated on an hourly rate basis: there is now a legal requirement for it to be explicitly detailed as rate and hours.

Our software has been doing this fully automatically for as long as we can remember!

If you think you may have a work around, then the complete guidance is available here:
