Editorial standards

Editorial policy

Help With Salary aims to publish practical, original and useful explanations of UK salary, tax, pension, bonus and salary sacrifice topics.

Source standards

Where possible, content is based on official or reputable sources such as GOV.UK, HMRC, ONS, MoneyHelper, MoneySavingExpert, Bank of England, pension providers and well-established salary or recruitment data sources. Articles should add explanation, worked examples or context rather than merely repeat source material.

Review approach

Guides and blog drafts are reviewed for relevance, clarity, source quality and usefulness before publication. Content that is speculative, duplicated, promotional without value, or outside the site's salary-planning topic area should not be published.

Corrections

If a reader spots an error or outdated threshold, they can use the contact page. Corrections should be prioritised where they affect calculator interpretation, tax thresholds, salary sacrifice treatment or user understanding.

Advertising separation

Advertising does not determine calculator outputs or editorial conclusions. Sponsored or promotional content should be clearly labelled if introduced in future.
