Remote US Employee Working Temporarily in the UK

Hello, If a full-time employee working for a US-based company temporarily moves to the UK for roughly 3-4 months: 1) Is the US-based employer required to pay the employee's salary in pounds? Are there any remote work laws within the UK that state that salaries must be paid in local currency? 2) Is the US-based company required to provide UK social benefits? Thanks

Hi,

As the individual would not be UK resident, the income and tax due would continue to be declared in the US.

Thank you.
