Register Tronc Schemes & Payroll

Tronc schemes, also known as 'troncs' or tronc arrangements, are commonly utilized by businesses in the hospitality and leisure industry to fairly allocate service charges, tips, and gratuities to their employees. These schemes offer substantial advantages to both employers and staff members, as they are eligible for long-standing tax reliefs and exemptions. By implementing a tronc, businesses can effectively boost their employees' take-home pay without incurring additional costs. Furthermore, tronc arrangements ensure that HMRC accurately receives the appropriate amount of tax on the growing number of discretionary payments processed via payment cards. Overall, tronc schemes contribute to fair and transparent compensation practices within the sector.

Tronc Scheme Registration

Register Tronc Schemes – Tronc Payroll

Waiting staff in the hospitality sector receive tips, service charges and gratuities from clients for services rendered. The monies thus collected are distributed among staff through a system known as the tronc scheme.

As an employer the scheme offers you considerable benefits. You can ensure that your exposure to PAYE and NIC contributions are reduced while offering your employees a morale boosting chance to take home greater benefits from the tips, gratuities and service charges levied on patrons.

As an employer, you also stand to benefit by qualifying for NIC exemptions that will reduce your contributions, as well as that of your employees. To fully benefit from the scheme, the system needs to be set up with proper directions and implemented by standard procedures. The troncmaster needs to set up a separate PAYE scheme which will be used for determining contributions, that is distinct from regular payroll scheme.

As an employer you will not exercise control over the distribution, but will be responsible as a payroll agent for the troncmaster PAYE scheme. This makes it necessary for ensuring that all procedures and practices are as per guidelines. Any deviation or adjustments by the concerned stakeholders can render the tronc system invalid, opening up possibilities of recoveries. This necessitates a proper briefing to concerned personnel about the implications and the need for compliance.
