Pay grades and hours question

shallowhal

Hello everyone I hope you can help.

I'm intending to apply for a part time support staff position with a given pay grade of NCJ 9 scale 9-11.

Could anyone tell me what that is in money?I don't know anything about these pay grades.

Also

The position is for 15 hours a week and as a single parent I need 16 hours a week to make it worthwhile (the benefits to employment trap) as without tax credits it may leave me worse off.

If I got the job could I make up the hours through catalogue delivery or self employment for tax credit purposes until I either find longer hours or the job increases hours (it's a trainee position)?

Thanks in advance

As I understand it:

For full-time staff (say 37.5 hours/week)
Point 9 [FONT=&quot]£13,589
Point 10 [/FONT][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]£13,874
[/FONT]Point 11 [/FONT][FONT=&quot]£14,733

Add any higher cost area amounts of
[/FONT]Inner London £3,299
Outer London £1,755
Inner Fringe £798
Outer Fringe £555

Take the total amount, divide by 37.5 and multiply by your number of hours.
