1 Gen2 Employers Guide to the Apprenticeship Levy The Apprenticeship Levy will be introduced in April Understand the key facts and how your business can prepare in advance to maximise the opportunity.
2 What is the Apprenticeship Levy? The Apprenticeship levy is part of the Government s plan to increase the quantity and quality of. The levy is a new tax which aims to fund three million new in England by The Chancellor s October 2015 Autumn Statement outlined some notable changes to the way s in England are funded. These changes are part of the bid to increase the number of s to meet pledges made in the Conservative manifesto. 1. In particular, the introduction of a levy on all employers with a UK pay bill in excess of 3 million per annum, regardless of whether they employ apprentices or not, was announced. These payments will be ring-fenced as employer contributions to supplement existing government funding for training. It is expected to raise 3bn annually over the next five years. Key Questions for Employers What is the Levy Will the levy impact my business? How will the levy work? What next? Key Dates How can I spend my levy contribution? Support from Gen2 2.
3 Will the Levy impact my Business? From 05 April 2017, employers with a paybill over 3m will be charged a levy of 0.5% of their paybill. All UK employers who have a total employee pay bill above 3m a year will pay the levy. This includes public and private sector, charities and educational providers such as academy groups and universities. Paybill will be based on total employee earnings subject to Class 1 secondary NICs. The 0.5% levy is on your full UK payroll bill, not just the amount over 3M. There is a 15K Government allowance. The levy will be payable through Pay As You Earn (PAYE) and will be payable alongside income tax and National Insurance. Payment will be taken monthly, in real time, meaning as your paybill changes each month, the levy amount taken will be reflected. HMRC will work closely with employers and providers of payroll services to minimise the burden of implementing these changes. The levy payment will then be ring-fenced in the form of an electronic voucher that can be used to purchase training from recognised providers, from the end of May 2017 onwards. Un-used vouchers will expire after 18 months. Employers in England who pay the levy and are committed to training will be able to get more out than they pay into the levy. The government will apply a 10% top-up to monthly funds i.e. all funds entering a levy payer s account will be increased, so every 1 will be increased to 1.10 in value. All employers with paybills of over 3m will be required to pay the levy, regardless of whether they subsequently re-claim voucher funds to purchase training. Based on current funding rules, the levy can be claimed back and spent on training for all employees at all levels and ages, including graduates who may be eligible for Level 6 or 7 programmes. Based on current funding rules, the levy can be used to fund existing employee development as long as they meet the criteria set out. Employers who pay into the levy may find that, over the course of an, the funds in their digital account aren t enough to cover the full cost of the training and assessment they would like to buy. When this happens the government will support and help employers meet the additional costs. Employers will be asked to make a contribution to the extra cost of training and to pay this directly to the government or chosen provider, however this will be payable over the lifetime of the assisted. Although the levy is calculated based on your full UK paybill, employers will only be able to spend their English proportion on English training. are a devolved policy, which means that authorities in each of the UK nations manage their own programmes, including how funding is spent on training. The digital service will support the English system. Scotland, Wales No Non-levy paying companies will have access to Government funding for s via the SFA once the levy has been launched. There is likely to be some contribution required. Claim to fund training costs Employers will receive more funds in their levy pots than they have contributed as a result of the top-up mechanism Are you an employer with a UK payroll bill of more than 3M per annum? Employers will receive a payment from the government to help meet the extra costs of employing year old apprentices. The provisional level of the extra payment will be announced in June and Northern Ireland have their own arrangements for supporting employers to access s. To calculate how much you will have to spend through the English system, the government plan to use data that they already hold about the home address of your employees. They ll use this data to work out what proportion of your pay bill is paid to employees living in England. They ll make this assessment in early 2017 and will announce the exact date in advance. Yes 0.5% Apprenticeship Levy Plus 10% Government top -up Includes 15K Government Allowance Don t claim Other organisations claim levy funds to train their apprentices 3. 4.
4 How will the levy work? What Next? Levy Paying Employer HMRC collect levy (PAYE) Employer views levy funds in digital account 10% Top up Employs apprentice. Commits to training. Receives training for apprentice SFA draws down levy funds monthly Unused levy funds expire after 18 months The government is expected to clarify more detail on the Apprenticeship Levy in summer However,there is already a wealth of information available for employers to start planning for the change, we have recommended some next steps below. Non-Levy Paying Employer Training Provider Registers with SFA Government Offers training Pass data on levy payments from HMRC to BIS Employer and Provider Indemnity Assurance Employs apprentice. Commits to training. Provides training to apprentice Receives training for apprentice Provides monthly ILR Timely data on training The above applies to new recruits and existing employees. Employer payment for proportion of cost direct to training provider Provides info to SFA that training has taken place & that employer has made contribution Check training is complete SFA pays proportion to the training provider Paid by SFA and / or employer If funding unlocked: pay provider 1. Calculate your levy payments You will need to model the estimated cost of the levy based on your UK payroll bill. Remember you will only receive the English proportion of your payments back to spend on training. To estimate the net cost to your organisation, you will need to take into account: 10% top-up levy funds Any additional employer incentives that the government may offer National Insurance savings that came into effect in April 2016 (no NI payments for apprentices under the age of 25) Using this information you can start to profile the model aligned to your workforce planning needs within your business that maximises the value of your levy pot. Gen2 can help with your modelling and planning process with advice tailored specifically to your business. 2. Start planning Currently the private sector employs 2.3% of their workforce as apprentices with the public sector employing 1.7%[1] - so employing 3% of your staff as apprentices is, in our opinion, a realistic target to aim for. If you would like a levy calculation tailored specifically to your business then please get in touch. 3. Research Understand how programmes have changed and now span across Accountancy, Financial Services, Law and Business, attracting talented, high calibre school leavers to benefit your business. New Standards, created by employer groups know as Trailblazers are now being introduced. There are now over 350 Apprenticeship Standards being developed and delivered. Understand the current and future (when announced) funding models and plan ahead now to be ready in 2017 to utilise your levy fund and the government contributions that will be available to train apprentices. Contact Gen2 to discuss the many s available for your business. 4. Update your Payroll software We would recommend you update your Payroll software as from April 6th 2016 organisations are no longer required to pay National Insurance Contributions for apprentices aged under
