Payroll

Hi, I have a couple of employees that have started doing different roles with different pay rates. All roles are casual. Do they need to receive 2 pay slips? 

Or can it all be on one pay slip, I have set up a wage item with the second job, but just wondering if that is correct or do they need the 2 pay slips.

If they have 2 pay slips then the tax would also be different, or do I have to treat it as a "second job" as in no tax free threshold.

Any thoughts?

    Hi Fifitz 

     

    If you're not sure about the legal obligations you will need to check with Fairwork or the ATO. I've only been able to find on the ATO website that you can have multiple employee records, not that must have them.

     

    Please let me know if you need further help.

    Hi Fifitz 

     

    Thanks for your post. Typically this would be handled by creating a payroll category for the second role with a Fixed hourly rate. You can then allocate the hours worked for each role to the applicable wage category.

     

    Please let me know if you need further help.

    Thanks, that is what I am currently doing. But was questioning if this is correct?

    I have read somewhere that they should have 2 employee profiles and receive 2 pay slips and just wanted clarification on this.
