Contributions rates are based on your actual salary (what you are paid each month or week).
If you are paid monthly, the contribution you make each month will depend on the pensionable earnings you were paid in that month. Your contribution rate will be worked out by taking your actual basic pay and any pensionable allowances for that month, multiplying them by 12, and applying the correct rate for the pay band (set out in the table above).
If your pensionable earnings change in any month, and your increased or decreased earnings take you into another pay band, your contribution rate will also change. Your pensionable earnings may vary from month to month because of changes such as pensionable bonuses or changes to your hours or salary.
