How to Prepare for the UK's 2027 Mandatory Payrolling of Benefits in Kind

Voluntary payrolling benefits in kind stops being optional in 2027. HMRC's shift means the value of company cars, vans and private medical cover, gym will become mandatory from April 2027 to be processed through payroll in real time.

For most reward and payroll teams, that's a bigger job than it sounds. Benefits data and payroll systems weren't built to talk to each other, and the deadline doesn't wait for them to start. In this webinar, Ben May joins the Ben team to work through what this actually means and how to prepare.

As ADP's Head of Payroll Product Compliance, Ben May tracks legislative change for a living and makes sure it lands correctly in payroll systems before it becomes a problem for the businesses running them. He's responsible for monitoring legislative changes affecting payroll compliance and ensuring payroll solutions remain aligned with evolving UK regulations, making him a trusted authority on this significant HMRC reform. He'll share the detail that comes from building compliance into payroll software, so it goes further than a general read of the rules.
