It means it's a set yearly salary instead of hourly...and it's pro-rated by when you start with the company. If you started 6 months into the year, you would only get half the yearly pay.

If the job pays £12000 per annum that will be for working full time. If a person works part time at say half the full time hours, they will be paid £6000 per annum. Similarly if they work only a quarter of the the full time then the pay will be £3000 per annum. That is what is meant by pro rata.

It's a part time job and they are trying to fool you into thinking it pays a full time salary. If you work 20 hours a week and full time employees work 40 hours a week £16,000 per annum pro rata means they will pay you £8,000 a year. Any organisation that attempts to mislead potential employees should be avoided like the plague.

Pay is per annum: salary job pays per year
Pro rata (rated): if she starts part way through year, salary paid is adjusted to reflect those months already passed in which cost of living/raises may have taken place for that position. Those increases will be figured into what she will earn for the remaining months in the year so that she is getting any adjustments due her.

per annum = per year
pro rata = advertised figure calculated at full time, pay decreased in line with hours

If she works part time her rate of pay will pro rata the annual amount, just devide the number of hours worked into the annual rate of pay

The salary quoted is for a full time employee. If the job your mum applied for is part time then she will receive the appropriate percentage. eg full time = 40 hours and your mum works only 20 then she will receive only half the advertised salary. Hope this helps.

The pay per annum is the pay per year.
Perhaps $20,000, $30,000, $50,000 etc.
Pro Rata - means if you receive it weekly, bi-weekly, monthly and so forth.
They definitely need to answer the questions for your mother.
If it's commission, then you don't get any money until you sell their quota - or amount they specify each week or month.

per annum means per year and pro rata normally means that a percentage may be taken away, say due to a day of study leave or if you dont fulfil your working hours each month or whatever.
it can depend on what sort of job it is too

It means if she is contracted to work 40 hours per week at £15,000 per annum but only works 20 hours per week she will get a rate of £7,500 - hence pro rata - part thereof!
