I have put together a 2026/27 NHS pay calculator that factors in updated pension contributions and unsocial hours properly, sharing in case it helps with budgeting
I’ve been working on a project around the 2026/27 pay changes and wanted to share it with the community. I’ve built a 2026/27 NHS pay calculator that factors in the updated pension contributions and unsocial hours. Sharing in case it helps anyone planning ahead or budgeting.
The calculator covers:
- Agenda for Change Bands 2–9, including pay progression steps
- Updated 2026/27 pension tier structure
- Unsocial hours, overtime, and typical enhancements
- Student loan plans (1, 2, 4, and 5)
- HCAS (Inner, Outer, and Fringe London weighting)
- Breakdown of pay on weekly, monthly, and annual views
It’s free to use. The main thing I’m trying to do at this stage is sanity-check the calculations before the new pay cycle properly kicks in, so if anyone is willing to compare it with their own expectations or payslip figures, feedback would be really appreciated.
