On my first contract. New to all this stuff. My hourly rate is £38per hour. Just had a pay slip for two weeks at 37.5 hours per week. Total paid by agency to umbrella was £2,850. My total pay was £1670.
It doesn't seem right. Out of the £2,850 came agency admin at £49, employer's NI at £302, (a voluntary holiday amount £32) tax at £710 and employee National Insurance at £80.
The umbrella say they have to pay the employer national insurance. If that is the case does about 10% seem right?
Is there anyone else out there who earns the same sort of rate but gets much more? I haven't submitted any expense yet but I do not see how they can make much difference as it would only be some food and a small bit of travel. (tube pass)
Thanks for any info or advice.
