Is My Payslip Correct: Minimum Wage Increase

slenderkitten

I don't know about national insurance, i'm more concerned about national minimum wage increase I'll see what my employer says.

You mention you haven't yet had your P60. Your employer has until 19th May to issue that to you. Although I always used to issue it with the March payslips, I didn't have to.

Hi I spoke with my union, they said I'm already above nmw before the minimum wage increase, they worked it out that my hourly rate is £12.13 /£23k. Someone on this thread said my pay looked correct so the £17 it's just that decrease in the national insurance, I'm disappointed, oh well.

Have they shown you the calculation?
For £12.13 an hour to work out as £23000 per annum you would need to be working 36.46 hours a week (probably 36.5 used with a bit of rounding ) , but you advised you work 39.50 hours per week, which would give £24915.02 per annum or £2076.25 a month

EDIT  I am assuming that you qualify for the adult minimum wage.

They did it as an hourly calculation 39.5 per week x 4 weeks, 158 hours a month, I told him all particulars as per my original post and gave him copies of ALL my payslips, yes I over 25. 

I really wish we had our old payroll person back she did things properly. This new person has messed up nearly everyone's pay. I have no confidence whatsoever.

Well that's a problem for a start as there aren't specifically 4 weeks in any month this calendar year.  Even February is 4.14 weeks.

Definitely looking like paid under minimum wage if that is how they did their sums.

The payroll person said she didn't know there was a minimum wage increase. Do you see the the severity of the problem now!

from You Gov: 

Give a P60 to all employees on your payroll who are working for you on the last day of the tax year (5 April). The P60 summarises their total pay and deductions for the year.

You must give your employees a P60 by 31 May.
