Pension
The Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS)
covers Council employees and some Councillors. The LGPS is a
contributory scheme; employees contribute 5.5%-7.5% of their own
salaries to the scheme. Employer’s contributions to the LGPS
vary depending upon how much is needed to ensure benefits under the
Scheme are properly funded, and are set independently. The
rules governing the pension scheme are contained in regulations
made by Parliament. More information about the scheme can be
found from the Related Link below.
Pay Policy Statement
One of the requirements of the Localism Act is
that local authorities must approve and publish a Pay Policy
Statement to articulate their policy towards a range of issues
relating to the pay of their workforce and particularly senior
staff and the lowest paid employees
