Steps: Set Up Payroll Taxes (UK)

Workday provides and maintains information on valid tax and National Insurance details, as required by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). You enter company and worker-specific tax data.
  1. (Optional) Edit Business Processes
    Add the
    Provide New Hire Tax Details
    task as a
    To Do
    step to the
    Hire
    or
    Onboarding
    Business Process in the UK Payroll functional area. This task enables workers to upload P45s and enter their tax details using the Starter Checklist.
  2. Ensure that all workers have a payroll ID. Workday recommends adding the
    Assign UK Payroll ID
    business process as a subprocess of the
    Hire
    business process, after the
    Assign Pay Group
    step.
Workday uses these settings to calculate tax and National Insurance during payroll processing.
