How the salary rule works
A Skilled Worker role must pay at least the higher of the going rate for its occupation code and the general threshold. The going rate comes from the Home Office table for the code; the general threshold is the same for every code. Lower figures apply in set cases, such as new entrants, and the job’s hours, the candidate’s circumstances and the other requirements all matter. These figures describe the code; they are not a decision about any person or offer. GOV.UK has the full rules.
