We regularly publish updates after we have issued the CD-ROM Please select the link below for recent updates

The Employer CD-ROM contains most of the forms and guidance you will need to run your payroll throughout the year and there are also calculators and forms you can fill in on screen and save to an employer/employee database.

The CD-ROM is mailed to all employers each February. A further updated version containing Budget changes is issued in June. Additional copies can be obtained from the Employer Orderline.

The CD-ROM contains:

  • An Employer and Employee database.
  • A P11 calculator that will work out and store your employees' tax, National Insurance contributions and Student Loan deductions each pay period - including an annual earnings period check for directors at the end of the year or if they leave during the year.
  • Interactive forms that will pre-populate from the Database and you can complete on-screen, such as P11D which will do the calculations for you.
  • Most of the forms and guidance you need to help you run your payroll.
  • Calculators that work out PAYE tax, National Insurance contributions including Directors Annual Earnings period, car and car fuel benefit, Statutory Payments, Student Loan deductions, a P45 checker and a net pay estimator.
