December Pay Day
In previous years we paid your pension slightly earlier in December, however since 2024 your December payment is made to your account on the last working day of the month in line with the rest of the year.
Will I receive a monthly payslip?
You can view your monthly payslips via your online account ‘my pension ONLINE’.
As you will be aware historically we have posted a payslip to you if your monthly net pension payment has changed by more than £1 from the previous month. With effect from April 2025 we will no longer produce printed payslips. However we will continue to upload your payslips on a monthly basis to your online account.
Your monthly payslips and annual P60 information is available to view via your online account - please visit our my pension ONLINE section for details of how to register.
