Course Details

The average statistical chances of dying each day in the UK for the general population are 1 in 38,667 which makes dying about 1,100 times more likely to happen to any of us over the weekend than winning the Lottery. Recently public policy has been focused on the impact of increased life expectancy on the public finances, but inevitably any payroller will have to deal on a regular basis with the impact of death in service. As caring professionals we will all want to extend the maximum possible assistance and compassion to the bereaved. But what should we be doing legally when someone dies in service?

 

What is covered:

  • Calculation of final salary
  • Taxation in death
  • National Insurance liability
  • Where to pay final salary
  • The deceased’s estate
