NHS backdated pay and pension contributions

2 replies

DH works for the NHS.

He’s just been told today that the finance department have been doing some audits, and they’ve realised that they’ve been underpaying him by about 8% for the last 8 years. So a significant sum of money.

They’ve said that they’ll pay him the money owed.

This missing pay would have been pensionable pay if he’d received it at the normal time in his payslips.

Does anyone have any idea whether pension contributions are likely to be taken out of this backdated pay when it’s paid to DH?

He’s started to worry about pension tax and tax returns now 😬

He can ask his payroll dept

I’d be more worried about the fact he’s missed out on 8 years of inflation on those pension contributions. I’d ask what can be done about those?
