Employees’ duty to report employers to police Another extraordinary implication of the ruling is that employees now have a legal duty under section 19 of the Terrorism Act 2000 to report to the police anyone that they know or suspect is demanding, collecting or paying money (tax) to the Government. 19. Disclosure of information: duty. (1) This section applies where a person believes or suspects that another person has committed an offence under any of sections 15 to 18, and bases his belief or suspicion on information which comes to his attention in the course of a trade, profession or business, or in the course of his employment… (2) The person commits an offence if he does not disclose to a constable as soon as is reasonably practicable his belief or suspicion, and the information on which it is based. This means that if you know that your employer is making payments (PAYE, NI, VAT, Corporation tax etc) to HM Government you have a legal duty to report him or her to the police, and if you fail to do so you commit an imprisonable offence. So start reporting employers to the Police now. makewarshistory.co.uk/
