How are Membership Contributions Calculated?
- Subs are annual and based on the number of permanent employees.
- Subs can be paid annually or monthly via debit order — it’s up to you!
- Our year runs from 1 January to 31 December, so if you join part-way through the year, then your subs will be a pro-rata amount for the year.
- It’s quick and easy to find your subs amount and get your application in.
