How much is it costing you?🤷♀️ From April 2025, significant changes to Employer National Insurance Contributions will take effect, with a substantial impact on many businesses. In some cases, companies will see an increase of over 100% in their ERNI costs compared to the previous year. Key changes include: 📈The Employer NIC rate will rise from 13.8% to 15%. 📉The Employer NIC Secondary Threshold will decrease from £9,100 to £5,000. 👀As an example employers will incur an additional cost of £615 per year for each employee earning £9,100, plus an extra 1.2% on any earnings above this amount. 🙌A slight saving grace, EA will increase to £10500 Following the announcement of the Autumn Budget, I assessed the impact of these changes. This increase has been incorporated into our 2025/26 budget, and we have made the necessary adjustments to account for these additional costs. It is important that you are aware of how this change may affect your company and take proactive steps to prepare accordingly.

Thanks to Rhiannon Jones for arranging for Green Hat Consulting to present to BEng and BSc final year Civil Engineering students at the University of South Wales yesterday. We presented on the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, and provided examples of our experience since its implementation. When one of the students asked: When did you finish your Bachelors degree? I couldn't quite believe it was over 30 years ago! It was great to engage with the groups and contribute to the sessions, there was great energy in the room - we even managed to introduce some music and potatoes! Such positive engagement. We look forward to engaging further over the coming months. #cdm #associationofprojectsafety #engagement #futureleaders #universityofsouthwales #energy

During a recent premises inspection on behalf of FREDS Timberframe, the entire company attended a presentation on the history of health and safety since the start of the Industrial Revolution. We discussed the formation of the HSE, noting that January 2025 marks its 50th anniversary, and reviewed last year's annual figures. FREDS Timberframe takes its safety responsibilities very seriously, maintaining a high standard of compliance, which was evident throughout the visit. Many thanks for the warm welcome.
