Changes to the rules for payslips

Friday May 2019

 I have some permanent employees and I also pay temporary workers as and when I need extra help. I understand that changes have recently been made to the rules concerning payslips. Could you please provide some clarification?

Prior to April 2019, employers were only obliged to give payslips to employees. From April 2019, all workers are entitled to receive an itemised payslip.

If the worker is not always paid the same amount, you need to include the hours they have worked. This will enable the worker to check they have been paid the right amount and that they have been paid at least the new National Minimum Wage (NMW) rates, effective from 1 April 2019.

If you do not currently record the number of hours your staff work, you need to start doing so with immediate effect.

In particular, these changes are designed to help gig economy workers and staff who regularly work overtime.
