Please can someone help. Does anyone know what date pay day is in the civil service? Just about to start new job in civil service the last week of this month at AO grade. I'm trying to figure out best dates for direct debits to be arranged. I prefer them to come our immediately after payday, which is currently the 10th, but I'm assuming civil service pay date may be different. Also, assuming I start on the Monday 27th June, I guess I'll get paid for the 4 June days along with the July pay. Hope this makes sense. Any help much appreciated ☺
