Employee Net Deduction - based on Banded Earnings
An Employee Net Deduction is deducted from the employee’s pay after Tax and NI is calculated, then the employee receives basic rate tax relief on that pension deduction. Higher rate tax payers need to claim the remaining tax relief from HMRC. The method of deducting pension contributions is called relief at source (RAF) by HMRC.
In payroll, if say the employee’s pension deduction is 1%, you would enter 1% in the employee’s pension deduction standard value but the actual deduction will be 0.8% from their pay.
A Banded Earnings pension deduction is calculated as a percentage of the employee’s Qualifying Earnings between the lower limit and upper limit.
