Welcome to this first issue of our newsletter. Considering
the number of changes that have been made recently which affect
every employee’s wage packet we thought it might be helpful
if we were to provide a forum for any questions or announcements
that may be of interest to you. If you have any questions or would
like to see a particular subject discussed in more detail, please
let us know and we will consider it for future editions. |

Where
did my money go?

Christine
answers an all too familiar question raised by many employees
in her own inimitable style.
Since April, my take home pay has gone down by about £50
per month. I was worried about how to tell my wife, but she doesn’t
seem too bothered by our reduced finances. In fact she’s
been on a shopping spree buying new shoes for our two children.
Do you think she has a rich boyfriend?
No, don’t worry, your wife hasn’t got a rich boyfriend,
but she is ‘getting it elsewhere’. Since April, the
children’s tax credit has been payable directly into the
claimant’s bank account (that is your wife’s) and
is no longer being paid through the tax code. If you’re
not getting yours, the Helpline number is 0845 300 1036

| News
for new Dads |
| Just
to show there is no favouritism towards the fairer sex, with effect
from 6 April, new Dads will qualify for Paternity Pay. The generous
sum of up to £100 per week will be payable to Dads who choose
to take unpaid Paternity Leave during the first 8 weeks after the
date of birth. Statutory Paternity Pay is available to a biological
father, a partner/husband that is not the baby’s biological
father or a female partner in a same sex couple. |
Hastings
Half-Marathon |
Many thanks to all those who sponsored my effort
in the above. I managed to finish with a time of 2h15m (but it really,
really hurt) The Ashdown Hurriers raised a grand total of £4,152.30.
