Only £4,500

Part of our pay deal was a profit share, potentially this will push some people over the the lower bracket limits or if it goes into pension pots, as is an option, then it will trigger the NI on pension contributions. Personally, that's £1,200 a year, but anything over £800 from the profit share will cause this to happen.
Ok, I am fortunate in that a reasonable chunk of my pay currently doesn't attract tax, but that amount varies each month.
It might seem like a bit here or there, but it's on top of everything that's already taken.
This helps to explain just how incompetent Rachael from Accounts actually is...
