There's not that many abbreviations.
RMPP is your pension contribution.
W/C means week commencing
OT is overtime
Scheduled att is scheduled attendance
NIC is your national insurance contribution

If there's anything else, let us know.

SSPR = Single Standard Pay Rate. The overtime pay rate a part-timer gets taking them to a total of 38 hours worked. It includes the Delivery Supplement and any other pay additions so that a part-timer working 38 hours is paid the same amount as a full-timer (subject to length of service). So a part-timer on a 30 hour contract should have their first 8 hours of overtime paid at SSPR.

RMPP is your pension contribution.
Or (if you're a recent starter), PSE RMDCP - Pension Salary Exchange Royal Mail Defined Contribution Plan - you
pay your pension contributions out of your pre-tax/pre NIC pay thereby saving paying a bit of tax/NIC.

Take it you’ve not used the Payslip glossary on the People App app payslips tile?
Press the question mark icon at the top of the screen and hey presto all the info is there!
