Full-time vs pro-rata
Common questions
How is pro-rata pay calculated?
Take the full-time salary, divide it by the full-time hours, then multiply by the hours you actually work. For example, £30,000 for a 37.5-hour week becomes £24,000 if you work 30 hours. The calculator then shows the take-home on that reduced salary.
Is part-time pay taxed differently?
No. You are taxed on what you actually earn, with the same £12,570 Personal Allowance, so part-time workers often pay a lower effective rate simply because their total income is lower.
Does pro-rata apply to holiday too?
Yes, paid holiday is normally pro-rated to your hours. The full-time statutory minimum of 28 days becomes proportionally fewer days for part-time staff.
