Sleep-ins: The latest decision for providers

Expectations were low, so its hard to be surprised but yesterdays’ announcement of the Social Care Compliance Scheme will have left most providers with a new headache to consider in respect of sleep in compliance – should you carry out a self-review? What are the potential benefits and drawbacks of doing so?

In our briefing note, Sleep-in announcement 1 November 2017: The key questions, we explain some of the many unanswered questions relating to the Government’s announcement, which in our view need to be answered by the Government before a decision to self-review could be taken.

Our team has significant experience in challenging HMRC and advising on NMW issues alongside other strategic and operational employment advice to health and social care providers.

You can read the full announcement here, and our briefing note, Sleep-in announcement 1 November 2017: The key questions, but for further information contact Matthew Wort or Anna Dabek.
