Summary
Reform UK said a government led by the party would charge employers a higher payroll-tax rate and a new levy for each overseas worker they hire.
Money raised would be used to undo Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ increase in employer national insurance contributions, making the tax cut available only for British workers.
The plan is designed to tilt hiring costs against foreign labor by lowering employers’ national insurance burden for domestic workers while raising it for overseas recruits.
