I’ve been made a job offer from another company. They are quoting the pre tax monthly income. The company is based in the FE.

However, when I look at my current payslip, I don’t understand why my monthly gross is more than my basic salary divided by 12.

Any ideas? Naturally, I’m trying to understand my take home each month!

Possibly your monthly gross includes elements which are additional to your basic salary?

It seems odd that this isn’t split out on your payslip.

Can you list all the payments/deductions shown on your payslip?

Easiest option would be to ask HR/Payroll

How would they increase the gross monthly income to make it show approximately £400 more than my annual salary divided by 12?

Thank you guys!

Is the "Salary" figure multiplied by 12 equally to what you think your annual salary is?

Where are you getting your “annual salary “ figure from?

If it’s from your contract it won’t include any subsequent pay awards

Thank you for input everyone.

I’m getting my annual salary from my contract. The confusion is that if I divide this number by 12 I’m getting a much lower number than my gross monthly figure on my current payslip. What would be an example of a pay award?

A pay rise you may get annually or now and again?

My pay is consistently the same figure.
The OSP payment is hundreds.. I’ve not revived a pay rise in over 12-months, or a bonus.

Two possibilities I can think of:
- if you receiver employer pension contributions, they may be accidentally paying it to you in cash, instead of putting it in your pension
- it may be a payroll mistake, and they’re accidentally overpaying you. If so, you’d owe them all the overpayments back again.

Either way, worth resolving with HR ASAP.
