Is the Average Number of Employees note mandatory for a Small Company?

Yes.

Disclosure of the average number of employees is required under the Companies Act.

Section 411

(1) The notes to a company’s annual accounts must disclose the average number of persons employed by the company in the financial year.

(1A) In the case of a company not subject to the small companies' regime, the notes to the company’s accounts must also disclose the average number of persons within each category of persons so employed.

TaxCalc will include the ‘Average number of employees’ note by default and includes this under the Required by law filter within Edit Notes.

The disclosure must be included in both Full and Registrar (Filleted) Financial Statements.
