We have recently moved over to paying helpers through the payroll
system. This was spurred on by talks with our local Inland Revenue
office who requested that helpers were paid in this way. It has
several advantages to the helpers and to the student who is using the
services, as neither party has to take on responsibility for sorting
out tax etc. However we do seem to have an increase in
administration as the helpers are paid weekly based on a timesheet.
Before going onto payroll helpers often kept several weeks, even
months worth of sheets and submitted them in bulk.
We told all the LEA's involved that we were changing to this system
and did not have any protest.
Hope this helps.
