Laucnhes News: New launch helps employees meet HMRC rules on salary sacrifice

If you’ve been laying awake worried about the rules on salary sacrifice, a new launch might give you the help you need!

Lets Connect, provider of home technology salary sacrifice schemes and part of Personal Group plc, has recently launched mytech, a salary sacrifice scheme designed to provide a one-stop shop solution that meets all the HMRC’s new rules on salary sacrifice.

 

mytech is a new proposition from Let’s Connect, whereby employees can choose from a wide range of products and pay for them directly from their pay over a period of up to 36 months and save on NI, making them affordable especially for lower paid staff. Equipment available includes personal computers, laptops, tablets, smartphones, Smart TVs, fitness wearables and multi-media products from leading suppliers such as Apple, Samsung, HP, Sony, fitbit, Microsoft and Sonos.

 

With a mission to enhance employees lives through technology, mytech features information for employees to research the scheme, our state-of-the-art online ordering hub Hapi and access to a wide range of latest technology products for them and their families. It also provides extended warranties and insurance as well as free home delivery as standard with direct contact to a customer service team if needed.

 

The team at Let’s Connect will work hand-in-hand with the employer to provide a fully managed service that includes: branded marketing, technology roadshows to offer employees further information on the scheme and available products, reporting suite for payroll, web ordering platform and in-house logistics and distribution facilities.

 

Steve Prevett, UK Sales and Marketing Director of Let’s Connect added: “We’re delighted that through the mytech scheme, businesses and public sector organisations are able to offer employees ongoing access to state of the art technology on a cost neutral basis. In doing so, they’re helping to close the digital skills gap, engage their staff, improve wellness and advance skills in a modern workplace.”

 

Let’s Connect is fully compliant with all the new HMRC rules which following the ratification of the Finance Bill in April this year, state that 100 percent of tax must be charged to employees over the period of their agreement. However, employees do still make savings in National Insurance on the total amount sacrificed and on pension contribution if you work for the NHS England or Wales.
