Hiring your first employee is a large step for any business. To assist you, the Department of Business Innovation & Skills has recently published an online toolkit which outlines the steps that an employer must take when employing someone for the first time.
These steps include information on:
- Suitable rates of pay
- Identifying whether an individual is legally able to be employed
- Ensuring that you have suitable insurance
- Understanding your obligations with regard to taxation and HM Revenue & Customs
The website also provides information and guidance on special schemes such as Apprenticeships, Grants & Young Persons Wage Incentives.
