Hi All,
My employer contracted with a payroll provider to produce payslips and look after that function. It has now come to light that since 2007 they recorded the wrong amount of BIK for Medical insurance and entered this on each payslip. on some employees they never put any bik on the payslips. The employer wants to rectify this incase there is a revenue audit. This will result in each employee having to include a notional amount of BIK of 3k on there next payslip and pay the tax 50%. They will then have to re apply for an old balancing statement to get the 20% back.
My question is that altough for PRSI the obligation is on the company is there anyway of making the company correct this error and not the employee. Some other facts the people with no BIK recorded were all new joiners over the last 2 years so they would never have seen any BIK on there salary slips and others who premium increased since 2007 never had the increase recorded correctly.
I know there may also have been cases where the employer put the net amount paid on payslips instead of the gross as a BIK. Anyone any experience correcting this.
