New Employee Information Sheet
This sheet explains payroll, leave, and administrative procedures to ensure accurate and timely payments.
What the Employer Must Tell the Employee
Before a new employee starts, the employer must clearly inform them of:
- Pay: rate, fortnightly schedule, first pay date, and week in hand (if applicable)
- Hours submission: how, where, and deadlines for submitting hours
- Overtime & sick leave: how they are calculated, submitted, and paid
- Annual leave: total days, accrual, request process, and carry-over rules
Important: No payments can be made outside the regular payroll cycle.
What the Employee Must Do (to ensure pay runs smoothly)
