Division Lines (24) to (27): Regulatory contribution rate
United Kingdom
The regulatory contribution rate includes the employer’s share of the social contribution rate plus the contribution rates to the supplementary pension and accident insurances. To have a common base to compare the regulatory contribution rate to the social insurance benchmark, the regulatory contribution rates are expressed in percentage of the civil servants’ gross wage. Due to the change in the base, the adjusted regulatory contribution rates are lower than the respective statutory rates.

This table is based on the assumption that 100 % of burden 2 has been put by the regulator on the price-regulated services. This assumption would have to be adapted if Germany were to show during the recovery phase that the Postal regulator has actually placed a certain percentage of burden 2 on the competitive services.
