Payroll Details

Talking of pay

Everyone deserves to be paid for the work they do accurately and on time. You'll be paid one week in arrears by the BACS system directly into your bank or building society on a Friday and your payslip will arrive through the post. Please ensure you check your bank or building society details carefully and should your details change, please let your recruitment consultant know in writing as soon as possible.

In order to make sure your payment is trouble-free, there are a couple of things you should know:

Timesheets: must be in the branch by 10am every Monday morning following your working week.

Tax Forms: unless you provide a current P45 you will need to complete a P46.

Bank Details: do we have your correct bank account and sort code numbers?

Students: if you're a full-time student and you only want to work for Spring Personnel in your holidays, you may be exempt from paying tax if your earnings for the full year are no more than the your non-taxable personal allowance. You’ll need to complete a P38, which you can get from your consultant.

National Insurance: we are legally obliged to deduct National Insurance from your pay after the Government threshold. Please provide your National Insurance number, which you can find on your P45 or an old payslip. If you need to apply for one, you will need to attend an interview, which you can organise through your local Benefits Agency.

Sick Pay: if you should fall ill for four consecutive days, you may be eligible for Statutory Sick Pay, provided you meet the relevant statutory criteria. Speak to your consultant and they’ll help you fill in the relevant forms.

Maternity benefits: contact your consultant for the latest guidance notes relating to this topic, they’ll explain everything to you.
