I agree that it is a bad look, but safety comes first - payroll can work it out later.

Having done shift work, it's often not payroll but colleagues and immediate management that are the challenge - they're the ones left picking up the pieces. Team culture is incredibly important & easily underestimated.

I agree that if you do it repeatedly you won't be the favourite person on the team, but if it's a one-off then most people would understand (especially if you're well-liked otherwise).

Employer NI contributions are a case in point: once a person's salary goes over the upper earnings limit, the employer NI contribution for the salary above that limit drops from 8% to 2%. So if you hire an extra member of staff you might have to pay 8% employer NIC but if you pay someone overtime instead you may only have to pay 2% employer NIC.

That isn't correct.

While employee contributions do indeed reduce after the Upper Earnings Limit, employer contributions do not; they continue to be 15% for all income above this level.
