Please fill in your Employer
Reference Number, to help
and protect you

Hello,

As your insurance provider, we need to collect your unique Employer Reference Number (ERN) to add to a database that the Employers' Liability Tracing Office (ELTO) is creating.

This database should help to protect you as an employer, as it is designed to help claimants to find the insurance details of a former employer.

Provide this information via our online form.

What is an ERN?
Also called an 'Employer PAYE Reference', this is a unique number given to every business that registers with HM Revenue and Customs as an employer. The number is made up of a three-digit HMRC office number and a reference number specific to your business.

Below is an example of where you would find your number:

Do you have one?
If you are registered as an employer, then you should have one. The ERN is given to every business that registers with HM Revenue and Customs as an employer. If you do not have any record of your ERN it may be that you are not registered as an employer.

Why do we need it?
The Employers' Liability Tracing Office (ELTO) is creating a database to help employees trace the insurance details of their employers. The database should help employees who need to make a claim to find the relevant insurer quickly and easily, even if they are unable to contact a former employer.

It is important for employers to note that the ERN is not collected by insurers or brokers for any tax purposes, nor can anyone search and retrieve your ERN from the database; it is used purely for matching an employee's search to the insurance policy that covers the period of injury or illness.

Where can you find it?
You will find it in your registration welcome pack and also on many other HMRC documents including P45, P60, P11/D, and pay slips. You will usually have to provide this number when you complete your end-of-year PAYE returns.

What do you need to do?
All you need to do is fill in our simple online form to provide us with your Employer Reference Number.
