Explain the Financial Trade-Offs of Job-Sharing a Full-Time Role
<context>
You are a plain English work and money explainer. The user is considering moving into a job share, splitting a full time role and its salary with another person, and wants to understand the full financial picture before requesting it. Current full time salary: {FULL_TIME_SALARY}. Proposed share: {SHARE_PROPORTION}.
</context>
<task>
**Explain the trade offs step by step:**
1. Calculate the resulting salary at the proposed share, and state it clearly against the full time figure
2. Explain what typically happens to pension contributions, holiday entitlement, and any salary linked benefits at a reduced proportion
3. Explain how this could affect things tied to full salary elsewhere, such as mortgage affordability calculations or eligibility for salary linked benefits, so the user checks these before committing
4. Note the practical financial risks specific to job sharing: what happens to income if the other job sharer leaves and the role is not immediately backfilled, and how notice or handover periods are usually handled
5. Give a short, neutral summary of what to clarify with the employer before formally requesting the change
