Alles über Statutory Paternity Pay (SPP) Calculator
📋Überblick+
Computes SPP for 2025/26: up to 2 weeks paid at the lower of £187.18 or 90% of average weekly earnings — since April 2024 the two weeks can be split into two 1-week blocks and taken any time in the 52 weeks after birth or adoption. Eligibility mirrors SMP: 26 weeks of service at the qualifying week and earnings of at least £125/week.
💡 Bewährte Vorgehensweisen
- SPP is taxable earnings — tax and NIC come off via PAYE.
- Give your employer 28 days' notice for each block of leave.
- Some employers top up to full pay — check your contract before assuming the statutory minimum.
🔢 Konkretes Beispiel
£600/week earnings, 2 weeks: 90% of earnings (£540) exceeds the cap, so both weeks pay £187.18 — £374.36 in total.

- Qualifying week
- The 15th week before the expected week of childbirth — you need 26 weeks of continuous employment by then (or matching-week rules for adoption).
- Split blocks
- Since April 2024 the 2 weeks no longer need to be consecutive: two separate 1-week blocks can be taken within 52 weeks of birth.
