855181 2010-02-04 07:21:00 1* So, do they actually have to give you payslips? The only way we can access payslips is via a computer in the staffroom. To have them printed we have to go to the office and ask.


I always thought that if an employee asked for a payslip each week the employer had to provide one. Go and ask them to send you your payslip by email each week. They would have to be pretty anal to say no.

That would be great if it were true in some industries - the primary education sector springs to mind...


baabits: what does your contract say about docking pay?

See: www.ers.govt.nz




What deductions can be made from wages?

Employers should generally not make deductions from employees' wages.

Deductions can be made in the following circumstances:

* The employee has given their written consent. The employee can withdraw this consent in writing at any time and the employer should then stop the deductions within two weeks or as soon as practicable. (This applies, for example, to deductions of union fees)
* For overpayments where the employee has been absent from work without the employer's authority, been on strike, locked out or suspended. (The employer must tell the employee before deducting any money and then make that deduction within two months of telling them)
* They are provided for in an employment agreement.
* A Court directs that a deduction be made.
* A bargaining fee arrangement applies to the employee
* An employee is required by law (for example, income tax, child support payments or other statutory purposes) to make payments.

If an employee is provided with board and lodging, a deduction of 15% for board, or 5% for lodging, can be made.

Also it may depend on your employment contract which you should have a copy of.
