The Power of Salary Sacrifice: A closing window for the ultimate tax advantage
26
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
With tax thresholds frozen for six years and more people being pulled quietly into higher tax bands, Salary Sacrifice is becoming one of the most important tools employers can offer.
Salary sacrifice is often seen as a technical payroll process, but in reality it’s one of the most effective ways to unlock real savings. It helps employees keep more of what they earn while delivering meaningful cost savings for businesses. The opportunity is there, but the window to act is closing.
From April 2029, National Insurance (NI) relief on workplace Pension Salary Sacrifice will be capped at the first £2,000 of contributions. Until then, employers and employees can still benefit from full NI savings. This creates a clear, time-limited opportunity to review arrangements and act.
In this webinar, we’ll explore:
• Why frozen tax thresholds are changing the real value of pay
• How salary sacrifice works and where the biggest gains sit
• What the 2029 cap on pension contributions means in practice for employers and
employees
• How much value is still available before the window closes
• What employers should be reviewing now to avoid missing the opportunity
This session focuses on the practical, financial impact of Salary Sacrifice, particularly with pension contributions. We cut through jargon to show how employers can offer smarter benefits that genuinely help people make their pay go further, while delivering measurable savings for the business.
