Casual Employees

A casual employee is an intermittent or irregular employee that does not accrue 4 weeks' paid annual holidays.

The holiday pay must be shown as a separate line on their payslip each time it is paid to them.

Minimum Wage does NOT include the 8%, it is to be paid as well as the minimum hourly rate.

If the hourly rate in the Employment Agreement includes the HP8% divide it by 108 and multiple it by 100 to get the correct rate for the Personal Details page.

If you have already paid this employee and they have accrued annual leave in error, you will need to pay them the holiday pay that has been calculated.

Please contact our helpdesk once you have edited the employees template and you have an open pay.
