In this session, Scottish Care will be joined by National Minimum Wage expert Gary Henderson (EY) as we discuss some of the most common NMW risks and issues facing Care at Home providers.

Gary has worked in the world of NMW for ten years – first as part of HMRCs NMW compliance teams, and now in supporting employers as part of EY’s NMW specialist team. In that time, he’s been involved in several projects and investigations across the care sector.

In this webinar – we will look at HMRCs current NMW enforcement activity and what to look out for with a new government and a new enforcement body on the horizon . He will also cover some of the common reasons for NMW breach in the sector – and what actions employers can take to improve NMW controls and compliance.
