Hey Bullswool,

 

For reloading a returning employee into NZ Desktop Payroll version 2024.2, you should load them as a new employee. In addition, when dealing with a returning employee, consider the following NZ employment rules and regulations:

  1. Leave Entitlements: Ensure that their leave entitlements are correctly calculated based on their new start date.
  2. KiwiSaver: Check if they need to be re-enrolled in KiwiSaver or if they've opted out previously.
  3. Tax Code: Verify their tax code and any other relevant tax details.
  4. Employment Agreement: Ensure that their employment agreement is updated and compliant with current regulations.

 

Best regards,

Doreen
