From time to time your employees may take absences from work due to sickness, maternity, paternity or adoption. These absences are often covered by statutory payments. As an employer it is your job to determine if these absences quality for the appropriate statutory payment that will cover their absence, then make the payment to them.
HMRC allows you to reclaim some of these statutory payments from them. This is done by reducing the PAYE taxes and the national insurance liabilities that you pay to HMRC. If your PAYE liabilities are too low to cover these statutory payments then you can request for advance funding from HMRC to recover these payments. This often comes in handy to cover maternity leaves.
