England, Wales and Scotland
Subject to paragraph (3), a pensionable employee shall, at such intervals as the appropriate administering authority may determine, make contributions to the appropriate superannuation fund in respect of every employment in which he is a pensionable employee.
The amount of the contribution to be made for any period is—
in the case of a manual worker, 5%, and
subject to paragraph (5), in the case of an officer, 6%,
of his remuneration in the employment; and any reduction in remuneration by reason of the actual or assumed enjoyment by the employee during any period of absence from duty of any statutory entitlement shall be disregarded.
A pensionable employee shall not make contributions in respect of any employment in relation to which he is entitled to reckon 45 years' reckonable service.
For the purposes of paragraph (3) reckonable service does not include reckonable service before attaining the age of 60 years beyond a total of 40 years.
In the case of an officer who—
is a designated employee, and
has not had a disqualifying break of service, and
has not, before entering the employment in which he is a pensionable employee, ceased to hold another local government employment and—
become entitled to benefits under these regulations or the 1974 regulations otherwise than under regulation E2(1)(c), or
having become entitled under regulation E2(1)(c), given notice under regulation E2(9)(c),
the amount of the contribution to be made for any period is 5% of his remuneration in the employment.
