Terms of Use

By using policepayrise.co.uk you agree to these terms. Last updated 1 October 2026.

Estimates, not advice

Our calculators and pay scales are provided for general information and guidance only. They produce estimates and do not constitute financial, tax, pension or legal advice. Figures depend on the information you enter and on standard assumptions that may not match your circumstances. For decisions about your pay, pension or finances, consult a qualified adviser or your force's payroll and pensions team.

Accuracy of figures

Pay figures apply the confirmed 3.5% award for 2026/27 to the official September 2025 pay scales. At the time of writing, the official statutory determination setting the exact 2026/27 pay points has not yet been published, so figures are estimates and may differ by a small amount from the final published scales. Tax, National Insurance, pension and student loan calculations use published rates and thresholds that can change. We make every effort to keep figures current but do not warrant that they are complete, accurate or up to date.

No liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we accept no liability for any loss or decision arising from use of, or reliance on, this site or its calculators. You use the site at your own risk.
