Help with Payslip

Post by Leedsworker »

Hiya guys, just started last week, got my first pay slip through the post, a lil help please guys.....

My pay is slightly higher than expected, is this cause I'm getting paid for this week and till Tuesday when pays due?

Also, I have the basic pay and then I also have arrears of basic pay? What's that for?

Thanks

The basic pay which you receive on friday is for that week. So if you started last week and did not get paid last friday then that is why you have arrears of basic pay for last week.

Hello everyone,

I just started working as of Monday 08/10/2012. In my contract is say 334.89 per week, but I have received my payslip and it is only 237 pound. Is this because I was only paid Monday through until thursday? A little help please.

I am contracted 30 hours a week if that helos.

334.89 is the pay rate (basic pay) based on a 40hr/w contract (assuming no shorter working week for simplicity) i.e. the hourly rate is £8.37

So, you are contracted for 30/40 (30 out of 40) = 3/4 of the basic pay rate which is £251.17 which is equal to 30 * 8.37

This is all before deductions (which reflects the lower amount you reported)
