Assumed pensionable pay (APP)
About this event
This course covers the use and calculation of Assumed Pensionable Pay (APP). APP is a notional pay figure calculated by employers and reported to the administering authority when an employee’s pay is reduced because they are absent from work. This notional pay figure is used to make sure an employee’s pension builds up as if they were at work receiving their normal pay.
