Best Answer

National Insurance contributions are amounts of monies taken from the wage or salary of every employed person in the UK and is graduated according to how much they are paid. The more you earn, the more you pay, but there is an upper earnings limit. Your employer also pays a contribution based on the same criteria. The money collected goes toward free health care for every citizen, reduced cost dental care, unemployment benefits, sickness benefit, disability benefits and retirement pensions.
