Senior Salaries
St Andrews Parish Council has two members of staff earning in excess of £50,000.
Pay Multiple
The code requires that local authorities must publish the pay multiple on their website, defined as the ratio between the highest-paid taxable earnings for the given year (including base salary, variable pay, bonuses, allowances, and the cash value of any benefits-in-kind) and the median earnings figure of the whole of the authority’s workforce.
The measure must: • Cover all the elements of remuneration that can be valued • Use the median earnings figure as the denominator, which should be that of all employees of the local authority on a fixed date each year, coinciding with reporting at the end of the financial year • Exclude changes in pension benefits, which due to their variety and complexity cannot be accurately included in a pay multiple disclosures
St Andrews Parish Council’s pay multiple is 1.9
