Will all my taxes be paid correctly to HMRC?
Our payroll system is integrated with HMRC, we’re required to ensure all tax payments are made correctly based on your tax code. Tax deductions are made automatically in conjunction with HMRC, we have no manual control over tax deductions and tax code changes come directly from HMRC. This helps ensures there’s no human error when your payroll is processed.
When can I expect to be paid?
In most instances, you would be paid the Friday following the week you worked. We run several payrolls on a Friday as this is the main payday for 85% of workers, but we do also run at least one payroll a day during the week for payments outside of hours worked, such as sick/maternity pay, rebates, mileage, holiday and any workers who pay an additional fee for “Faster pay.”
Will I get holiday pay?
We advance you your holiday pay each time you are paid as part of your wage. We show the amount of your wage that is allocated to holiday pay on the payments section of each payslip. You can opt to accrue the holiday instead, but you need to tell us this. If accrued, you only need to ask us to release the amount you want, it would be released on a Monday, Tuesday or Friday.
What happens if I'm off sick?

Any eligible SSP payments would be paid out on a Tuesday each week.
