Additional Information

In this section, you can:

Generate a Cost Summary which displays a cost overview of all your enroled Flexible Benefits

If your organisation applies the National Insurance Cost Neutrality principle to your benefits choices, any differences in employer National Insurance Contributions (NICs) produced as a result of your benefits choices will affect your salary. Applying this principle, if your choices result in a saving in employer NICs for your organisation, this saving will be passed on to you. Conversely, if your choices produce increased NICs, your employer will deduct this increase from you. The Cost Summary option will also display the value of any additions or deductions from your salary, as a result of the application of the NI cost neutrality principle during your benefits enrolment.

By choosing the Display Salary Detail option, you can view the effects of your benefits choices on your monthly salary by reviewing your Pre-Flexand Post-Flexsalary.

Generate a confirmation form detailing:
- Personnel and Flexible Benefits data related to you
- All enroled benefits plans active on the selected validity date
- Your chosen plan options
- Validity dates of all enroled plans
- Costs of all enroled plans
