P60 question

I have received my p60 today and I'm confused. I have one job with a company I have worked with for 8 years, however on my p60 it states that I have been paid just over £1000 from previous employment and have paid £70 in tax

Anyone know why this may have happened?

    Does it not say that you've worked for the 8 years then? What have they put down on the p60 for how long you've worked?

    Has your actual employer changed somehow i.e. you were originally working for a business called, say, "Cheap Spices" but sometime during the last tax year this became "Cheap Spices Ltd"?

    I don't think a P60 gives any indication of how long you've worked for an employer, does it?
