    Hi, I pay into this scheme and have a feeling that my contribution is around 5-6%, the employer contribution is I think around 13% ish.
    Debt free = December 2010...as of March 2006 it is now January 2010..... as of December 2008 it is now December 2009 :j hopefully sooner!!
    :jDEBT FREE:j January 2012, took longer but I got there, all by myself, through sheer hard work and pride!

    NHS pension contribution rates vary depending on how much you earn - based on full time salary rates as follows:

    Pensionable Pay Contribution Rate
    Up to £20,224 5%
    £20,225 - £66,789 6.5%
    £66,790 - £105,318 7.5%
    £105,319+ 8.5%

    Your employer puts in 14%.

    Don't forget your contribution is before tax, so at the lowest level it only costs you about 3%.
