Contributions are deducted from gross pay before tax is calculated by the employer’s payroll department.
Payroll Giving donations are taken from pay after National Insurance but before tax. A donation of £5 a month would actually cost an employee £4 from their take-home pay (if they pay 20% tax) or £3 (if they pay 40% tax).
Payroll Giving is important. Regular donations enable charities like ours to plan for projects, to enable us to keep supporting the 39,000 people we support each year across the South East. For more details visit www.payrollgivingmonth.com
