In Zoho Payroll UK, an employee’s pay is managed on the **Salary** tab. That can include:

*   **Basic pay:** The employee’s regular salary or wage
*   **Pensions:** Workplace pension scheme and contribution details
*   **Deductions:** Student or postgraduate loans, attachment of earnings, and other deductions
*   **Benefits in Kind:** Non-cash benefits reported through P11D or PAYE
*   **Statutory Pay:** For example Statutory Maternity Pay

You may need to update these details when an employee gets a raise, changes role, or when deductions or benefits change.

To update basic pay:

1.  Go to **Employees**.
2.  Open the employee.
3.  Open the **Salary** tab.
4.  Click **Edit** on **Basic Pay**.
5.  Update the amount and frequency, then click **Save**.

The updated basic pay applies to upcoming pay runs.

For pensions, deductions, benefits in kind, and statutory pay, refer to [Manage Employee Salary Details](/uk/payroll/help/employer/employees/manage-employee-salary-details.html). To set salary when you first add someone, refer to [Add Employees - Salary](/uk/payroll/help/employer/employees/add-employees.html#salary).
