Why is the figure on my SD86C certificate different to what earnings have been declared for me?

Your SD86C is a calculation of your combined Net Pensionable Earnings (NPE) across all contracts you have worked on.

Superannuable adjustments such as under-performance can impact the figure on your SD86C and cause a deduction to be taken out of your declared earnings. Adjustments such as maternity, paternity and long term sickness leave are also superannuable and will be added on top of your declared earnings, increasing your pensionable pay.

These adjustments will show in the 'Other Superannuable Payments/Deductions' category on your SD86C certificate.
