Hypothetical breakdown of pro-rata salary:
If appointed to this part time (6 hours per week) position at the bottom of the salary band (Grade 1 – point 11) your anticipated gross pay per month would be £284.61. Edge Hill University pay term staff monthly in arrears, in twelve equal instalments.
This example monthly gross pay figure is based on:
- Full Time Full Year equivalent salary of £23881 ÷ 52 weeks ÷ 36.25 hours (full time equivalent contract hours) = £12.6690 per hour.
- £12.6690 per hour x 6 hours per week x 44.93 weeks (i.e., the 39.6 term time working weeks you work + 5.33 additional pay weeks in lieu of your annual leave and statutory leave) = £3415.31 annual actual gross salary before tax, national insurance, and any other deductions.
- £3415.31 ÷ 12 months = £284.61 equal gross pay monthly instalments.
- This scenario is based on a start date of 1st September and working a full year. This example salary amount is subject to change depending on candidate start-date within the year, and where in the salary band the candidate is hired.
