When entering a performer’s earnings on Compass you must select their employment type as either:

  • Self-employed - Provider directly engages a performer on a self-employed basis.
  • Salaried -  Provider directly engages a performer on an employed basis.
  • Agency - Provider enters into an arrangement with a locum agency to supply temporary staff.
  • Incorporated - Provider directly engages a performer who trades as a limited company.
  • Sub-contractor - Provider enters into an arrangement with another provider to assist in the performance of their contract. The performers are not directly employed by the provider.

‘Agency’, ‘Incorporated’ and ‘Sub-contractor’ are not pensionable employment types. If one of these options are selected, you must enter Net Pensionable Earnings Equivalent (NPEE) rather than Net Pensionable Earnings (NPE).
