ArgotJobRemuneration  
An argot to describe remuneration received for a job.

Introduction

This argot describes fields associated with remuneration to an employee for a job, such as salary, pension, benefits, and so on.

See also: ArgotJob

Salary

Salary

A salary is either expressed as a single figure or a range. A single figure would usually be used for an 'actual' salary, i.e, something that someone actually earns, whilst a range is useful for vacancies.

The salary can also have a frequency, so that hourly rates can be expressed.

To cope with these alternatives, a number of fields are required which work together. These are:

  • salary
  • salaryFrom
  • salaryTo
  • salaryPeriod
  • salaryFrequency

The default value for the period is 'year', and the default value for frequency is 'monthly'.

Examples

An hourly rate of £8.50 would be expressed as:

salary8.50
salaryPeriodhour

A vacancy that has an annual salary that starts at £33,975 and can go up to £43,105 would be expressed as:

salaryFrom33975
salaryTo43105

Pay Scheme

Example: Agenda for change

Pay Band

Example: 7

Eligible for tax credits?

Indicates whether this job entitles the employee to tax credits.

Example: yes

Meets national minimum wage requirements?

Indicates whether this job meets the national minimum wage requirements.

Example: yes

Pension

Indicates whether this job entitles the employee to pension rights.

Example: yes

The Pension field may need more work, i.e. what type of pension is available. Not sure where the national minimum wage requirement came from - can you pl advise?

Putting a number of examples might be helpful. For example in the Salary field, you might wish to add £8.30 per hour.

I think it would be helpful for searches etc. if the salary details were more structured (perhaps this is David's point). For example, a minimum and maximum range and a frequency. Perhaps salary is another argot.

Are there a set of known pay bands and pay schemes? It would be good to refer to those as instances rather than strings.
