Current contribution rates

Contribution rates

Member contribution rates are set according to the number of hours worked, per week, on a nominal basis. Your nominal hours are your base engagement times – overtime and additional hours are not included.

Contributions are deducted fortnightly via direct debit. Members paying by credit or debit card can choose to pay contributions quarterly, half-yearly or annually.

A 10% discount on total contributions is offered to members who pay up-front annually.

Special discounted rates are available for trainees – call us to discuss.

Contribution rates only increase when we win pay rises for you – find out more by reading our contributions policy.
