Getting your GCA rates wrong could cost more than you think.

With different worker types, role-based margin restrictions, employment costs and the 1% GCA framework fee to consider, getting the numbers right isn’t something you want to leave to guesswork.

Our GCA Calculator takes the hard work out of it.

Simply enter the relevant details, select the worker’s role and it gives you a clear breakdown of the rates, costs, margins and the correct amount to invoice. That means less time checking calculations, fewer opportunities for mistakes and greater confidence that your invoices are right.

It’s quick, straightforward and built specifically with education recruitment agencies in mind. Try our GCA Calculator at https://payepayment.co.uk/gcacalculator/

Why make GCA invoicing harder than it needs to be?!?!

The VAT analysis should be performed at each layer of the healthcare supply chain, not by applying one label to the whole arrangement.

Layer 1: Agency to Trust. A qualifying GMC locum-doctor supply may be exempt under HMRC Brief 6/2026. A qualifying direct nursing supply follows the separate Nursing Agencies’ Concession.

Layer 2: PGS and the agency. HMRC VAT Notice 700/34 states that there is no supply for VAT purposes between genuine joint employers. Exact reimbursement of salaries, employer NIC, pension and other direct employment costs can therefore be outside scope.

Layer 3: PGS service fee. The genuine employment-administration and payroll service charge remains VATable.

This is VAT mitigation through a real employment structure, not a blanket claim that there is no VAT anywhere in the chain.

What should you really expect from a payroll partner?

It’s about more than simply getting people paid.

For recruitment agencies, the right payroll partner can make a real difference to compliance, contractor relationships, efficiency and ultimately the way your business operates.

Take a look below and if you’re thinking about changing your payroll provider, let’s talk. Head on over to https://peoplegroupservices.com/ then call 0345 034 1530 or email [email protected]

Under genuine Joint Employment, the recruitment agency and People Group Services are both named employers.

The agency retains work-finding, assignment, rate and client responsibilities and the employer functions allocated to it. PGS operates the agreed employment contract, payroll, PAYE and RTI, employer National Insurance, pension, holiday, statutory pay, employee support and HR processes. The Trust remains the hirer and retains clinical governance, patient safety and supervision.

The Fair Work Agency makes an important point: both employers can remain jointly and severally responsible.

Joint Employment does not make legal responsibility disappear.
Its strength is that contracts, KIDs, hirer terms, payroll, worker communications, responsibility matrices and evidence all align around a transparent structure that the agency can actually operate at scale.

How many people do you think it takes to keep a classroom running?

There’s the teacher at the front of the room, of course. But behind them are thousands of temporary workers supporting schools across the UK, from teaching assistants and support staff to supply teachers and other education professionals.

This World Teachers’ Day, we’re raising a coffee to the teachers, support staff and temporary workers helping keep education moving every day.

An oldie but a goldie, this has to be our favourite testimonial…

“You are the best company in UK when it comes to customer service. You answer the phone in 7 to 8 seconds the most. You deal with any query correctly and honestly. For almost 4 years dealing with you guys, not once did you make an error.

Your agents are so polite, and helpful, there is no problem if I ask you to check something further, you respond straight away. When dealing with holiday pay you organise all in the best manner. You are a pleasure to speak with, so polite, so nice, so understandable.

I honestly dread to call any other customer service except you. I wish all the UK companies had this level of customer service. Wish you many good prosperous years.”

From 6 April 2026, the PAYE treatment of labour supply chains involving umbrella companies is no longer just a provider due-diligence issue.

The statutory chain can make the end client or the party closest to the end client jointly and severally liable for unpaid PAYE in the circumstances described by HMRC.

An accreditation, annual certificate, warranty or provider badge can be useful. It cannot reconcile a specific worker’s pay period.

The agency needs worker-level visibility: assignment, contract, KID, gross pay, deductions, payslip, RTI values, PAYE liability, payment to HMRC, exceptions and the identity of every legal entity in the chain.

PGS positions JSL governance around evidence in real time. The aim is not to make unsupported guarantees. It is to give the agency the data and audit trail needed to identify and escalate a problem before it becomes a historic liability.

For recruitment agencies, payroll isn’t just about getting people paid on time.

There are checks, payments, HMRC requirements and financial risks that all need to be right. Add into that Joint and Several Liability, which has placed a greater onus on recruitment agencies to evidence what’s happening across their payroll supply chain, and that’s a lot to keep track of.

People Group Services provides a fully validated payroll process, with independent auditing, insurance and financial safeguards built in. We’ve developed an Agency Portal designed to give agencies clear, verifiable, real-time visibility across the payroll lifecycle, from calculation through to confirmed settlement with HMRC.

It’s another layer of protection for your agency, your workers and your clients.

Before cash, credit cards or digital wallets, how did we pay for things?

In livestock.

The word ‘fee’ comes from the Old English feoh, which could mean cattle, property or movable wealth.

And cattle weren’t just something you kept on a farm. They were a form of wealth and could be used as payment or exchanged for goods and services. Over time, the meaning of feoh evolved into fee and became associated with a payment made in return for a service.

Today, a payment lands in your bank account rather than a cow being led down the road!
