If an employee changed schemes in the period you are asking for, are the earnings we are providing the total for both schemes or just the alpha earnings?

For tapered members, please provide the alternative scheme data for the two parts of the scheme year.

For example:

A member was in classic 01/04/2015 – 30/09/2015 and tapered into alpha on 01/10/2015.

In this example, you would provide the pensionable earnings between 01/04/2015 – 30/09/2015 and the Widowers Pension Scheme (WPS) contributions for 01/10/2015 – 31/03/2016.
