Legal Terms - Emoluments
It refer to any pay, wages, fees, incidental benefits, or other forms of compensation associated with employment. Sections 62(2) and 6(1) of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 impose income tax on an individual's emoluments in accordance with the regulations governing *employment income. In contrast, the basis for National Insurance contributions is derived from earnings and designated benefits in kind. Consequently, a payment upon the cessation of work that exceeds the tax-exempt threshold incurs an income tax liability, but does not incur a National Insurance charge. The differentiation is examined in HMRC v Forde & McHugh Ltd [2012] EWCA Civ 692.
