Advice on Job Share Salary

    Quick question on job share - am on full hours so would go down to 11 hrs and I understand that my pay and allowances are halved and any posts are still full pay.

    What I can't figure is the effect of the tax (and I've tried calculating through it :eek:). Does a job share effectively mean half the pay I'm on now? Or will the various taxes have a different effect on it? Can anyone who has been or is on a job share let me know if their salary worked out to effectively half or something else? Thanks!

    I am no expert but we have a few job sharing in my school and they say that you do OK pay wise....apparently you get 5/8 of your salary once tax etc has been taken into account. One person told me that she is down about 320 euro a pay packet and she seems happy with this as it saves her child care for her two young children on 3 afternoons that she isn't in school.

    There are a couple of teachers in my school on job share. Obviously it would depend on your own tax situation and what credits you have, but with a salary for 11 hours, it means less pension levy payments, less tax paid and they said they come out with about 60% of the net pay they had on full hours, which is pretty much in line with solerina's post above.
