A questions regarding Tier 2 General working hours

[VirtualWaver]

Hi guys,

I am currently working 37.5 hours per week and receive 25,000 per annum.

My SOC occupation is 2135 and the new entrants salary for that position is 24,000 per annum (I am holding Tier 1 Post-Study Visa). But this pay is for 39 hours per week.

My questions is: is it ok that I am working only 37.5 hours instead of 39? I am working less hours but receive more salary than it is for 39 hours. Will it be a problem or it is ok? Thanks.

the new entrant min. salary for a 39 hour week under SOC code 2135 is actually £24,900, not £24,000.

For a 37.5 hour week the minimum would be 37.5/39.0 x £24,900 = £23, 943. Your £25k salary is well above the threshold. There is no problem with working a 37.5 hour week.

Yeah you're right - I mistyped 24000 Thanks a lot for help! I was worrying about this one

I have another question: I just double checked the SOL and a bit confused about that. Something is wrong there... I opened another thread

The reason of opening another thread is that it is a bit different topic and might be useful for other people as well. Didn't want to mix it with this one Will really appreciate your help with that one as well! Thanks a lot!
