National Insurance (NI) is a tax system in the United Kingdom paid by workers and employers for funding state benefits. According to GOV.UK
- an employee earning above £162 a week
- self-employed and making a profit of £6,205 or more a year
- 62 to £892 a week (£702 to £3,863 a month) 12%
- Over £892 a week (£3,863 a month) 2%
Fortunately since MTI doctors aren't employed as employees (they are employed by Trust under an honorary agreement) they don't have to pay taxes, insurance or pension. Since they don't pay taxes so they don't get any Public funds. So why should we bother? You need an insurance number for issuance of government documents. You need it for registering for Locum jobs because the pay you are going to get will be taxed.
