Definition

The Current salary at reference date is to be shown in £s per annum, in six digits. Comma delimiters should be excluded.

Notes

The Current salary at reference date will be the monies received in respect of institutional duties actually being paid as at 31 July (or in the case of staff who have left the institution during the academic/financial year, the salary on leaving). This should include any regular payments for additional duties, responsibility allowances or honoraria, regardless of their source. Subsequent back-dated pay awards will be excluded.

Salaries returned to HESA should be rounded to the nearest £1 for HESA's use. Leading zeros should be returned.

For the purposes of disseminating information required by third party statutory customers, information will only be released in bandings of no less than £5000 up to £50000 with one band for over £50000.

This field should show all salary, not just basic salary, paid in respect of institutional duties for the appointment detailed in the record.

All regular payments paid to the member of staff should be included. This should include London Weightings and Performance Related Pay and regularly paid allowances for additional duties, regardless of their type or the source of the payment (for example, supervision fees, honoraria, discretionary awards built into normal pay, first aid allowances etc.). One-off payments, for example a merit award or payment for consultancy work, are not included. Payments for consultancy work will therefore be included if they are built into regular pay but will otherwise be excluded. The emphasis is on the total regular income of the member of staff.

In many cases an acceptable approximation for calculating this field would be to multiply the July salary by 12. Should the July salary be significantly distorted for any reason, for example by back-dated pay awards, another method or month should be selected.

In the case of a staff member who leaves half way through a year, the annual salary which they would have received had they stayed all year should be returned. Hourly paid staff should have the gross actual payments during the year returned in this field.
