Furlough Employer National Insurance Contribution

philng

I am looking at a case for a fellow employee who is on Zero hour contract and been rejected Furlough. Out of interest how much would the National Insurance amount the employer would have to contribute for an employee with Furlough pay around £750pm? Employee is not in company pension. Just trying to see what the actual cost to the employer is.

Whats the point, if they have been refused they have been refused. An employer doesn't have to give a reason.

Anyway, if you think it will make a difference - https://www.gov.uk/national-insurance-rates-letters

The er's NI would be £29.26 per year, but as Bradders said they are unlikely to change their mind and the NI cost would rise (for £1,000 pcm it would cost £443.26 pa) for higher paid people, so it is probably a blanket decision for all zero hours contracts.
