About Public Sector Calculators

What this site does

We build role-based calculators to help people in UK public sector organisations explore common scenarios such as pay progression, take-home pay, annual leave, sick pay and family leave. These tools are designed for guidance and comparison, not as legal or payroll advice.

Data and methodology

Calculators use published frameworks and datasets that are versioned in this project. Where national frameworks differ by employer or contract, outputs are shown as illustrative estimates. If a figure matters for a real-world decision, check your contract, employer HR guidance, regulator guidance, or union documentation.

Editorial approach

We aim to write clear, neutral content and disclose assumptions in each calculator. We avoid misleading certainty and include caveats wherever terms can vary locally.

Important note

Public Sector Calculators is independent and is not affiliated with HM Government, the NHS, local authorities, unions, or any individual employer.
