New rates from 6 April 2024
The Toolkit has now been updated with the new rates and caps which are applicable from 6 April 2024. These new rates will be picked up automatically for any EDT on or after 6 April 2023. The main changes are:
- Weekly pay limit has increased from £643 to £700
- Statutory cap has increased from £105,707 to £115,115
The new tax bands, again in force from 6 April 2024, have also been added to the Tax screen.
The tax rates and bands remain unchanged in England and Wales.
However, an extra tax band has been added for Scotland and the thresholds have changed. A new tax rate of 45% has been created for earnings between £75,000 and £125,140 and top rate of tax is now 48%.
Why use the Toolkit?
Watch a recording of the webinar we presented in April 2017 to employment judges throughout the country to help you understand how it works in practice.
