I will be working 22 1/2 hours a week.

The letter staes that I will start on £12922 per annum. Now it doesn't say that this is pro rata, but it must be because otherwise that makes my hourly rate of pay £11 which I know isn't right.

So assuming they meant pro rata, how do I work that out ??

I did £12922 divided by 52 weeks, divided by 37.5 hours and got £6.62.

Is that right or should it be divided by 40 hours ??

You need to know what a full time person would work. Do you have a contract to sign and return? It should say in there...

Nope not had a contract yet.

Have looked at other jobs advertised by them and all of their full time posts state 37.5 hours.

It is within the NHS if that helps.

Can you maybe phone the HR dept at the hospital you will be working in?

They should be there?

Have rung them and they are going to find out and ring me back, but tbh if I had a pound for every time they told me that then i'd not need a job lol.

It sounds like it would be 37.5 if thats what equivalent jobs are, although some jobs may have a different "standard working week".

Wait an hour and ring them again IB!!

Tell them you need to know today cos of your HB etc (saw your other thread)

IllegallyBrunette · 31/12/2008 11:53

I take back what I said, she did ring back.

She said it's £7753, so £6.62 an hour which is what i worked it out as.

Thanks for the help
