Question 1

What must a UK payslip include by law?

Accepted Answer

Since April 2019, all UK workers (including casual and zero-hours) are entitled to an itemised payslip. It must show gross pay, amounts and reasons for variable deductions (e.g. tax, NIC), net pay, and for hourly-paid workers, the total hours worked.

Question 2

How does PAYE work in the United Kingdom?

Accepted Answer

PAYE is HMRC's system for collecting income tax and National Insurance from employment income. Employers use each employee's tax code to calculate the correct deduction each pay period. Tax codes reflect the personal allowance and any adjustments, ensuring most employees pay the right amount of tax throughout the year.

Question 3

Are pension contributions automatically deducted from UK payslips?

Accepted Answer

Yes, under auto-enrolment legislation, eligible employees are automatically enrolled into a workplace pension scheme. The minimum total contribution is 8% of qualifying earnings (5% employee, 3% employer). These deductions appear on the payslip and employees can opt out if they choose.
