calculating take home pay

Hazy

I am currently on maternity leave and am considering going back part time. I'm trying to work out how much money I'll have.

My salary will be £31,000 and my pension contributions are 6.4%, I'm also considering child care vouchers under salary sacrifice scheme.

In order to calculate take home pay I take it I deduct the vouchers of £55 per week, then deduct pension contributions and use that figure to put in a salary calculator?

My husband can also do child care vouchers, how do we decide who takes them? Do you have to do the whole £55 a week?

Any advice gratefully recieved.

I believe that you can split the vouchers and no you dont have to take the full £55.

You correct in thinking that you deduct the non taxable element from your gross figure before processing the tax calculation.
