The employment tax landscape is increasingly complex. Legislative changes coupled with innovative incentive strategies mean that tax functions are often stretched to capacity.

It is not only challenging, it is also fraught with risk. Both Revenue and the general public are acutely aware of organisations' tax affairs, and it is imperative that compliance is achieved to avoid reputational and financial damage.

Our team of employment tax and payroll experts can help you navigate the complexities involved in meeting your employment tax obligations, whether that involves tax compliance, tax-effective incentives, remote working or social security. We can also conduct an employment tax health check to ensure that your organisation is well-placed to deal with a risk review or audit in the future.

Organisations in Ireland with more than 250 employees are now obliged to report on their gender pay gap, and this obligation will be extended to organisations with 50 or more employees in time.

As part of this process, employers will need to disclose the pay differences between male and female employees, data across a range of working arrangements, the proportion of male and female employees who receive benefits-in-kind and bonuses, and the number of male and female employees across four pay bands. There may also be a requirement to publish differences in pay by reference to job classification.

The gender pay gap team at PwC can help you prepare for this reporting obligation and achieve compliance. We can also assist in the creation and implementation of an effective communications plan and help you identify and accelerate projects that enhance your organisation's approach to diversity and inclusion.
