HMRC is to extend for a further month, until November 2017, the suspension of its national minimum wage enforcement activity over ‘sleep-in’ shifts in the social care sector. In July, the government announced a waiver of penalties for arrears of national minimum wage resulting from such shifts, which took place before 26 July 2017.
This action was taken in recognition of the fact that versions of the guidance, ‘Calculating the National Minimum Wage’, published before February 2015, were potentially misleading over the treatment in this area. The government expects to publish revised guidelines on its approach to enforcement for the social care sector during October. See http://bit.ly/2yK4y45.
