NPP - Normal Progression Point ECP - Exceptional Contribution Point

  • Annual increments will be assessed, and usually implemented, in April each year. They will be applied to staff with minimum 6 months service in their grade, who have not received a warning (that is still live) confirmed in writing under the disciplinary, capability, sickness or other policies, Statutes etc and who are not at the top spine point of their grade or within the ECP (Contribution Points). Progression is by one increment each year until the non-discretionary maximum point is reached.
  • This pay scale is usually reviewed annually in August.
  • The salaries are for a full-time equivalent employee (1898 hours annum), part-time employees will be pro-rated accordingly.
  • Please note that hourly rates are rounded and are provided for information only.
  • A supplement is applied to spine points which fall below the Voluntary Living Wage (VLW) (currently spine points 8 and 9) to bring their pay up to the equivalent of £12 an hour (the current VLW rate).
