How to understand your payslip
You receive a payslip each week for the shifts worked during the relevant period. The contract date determines which payslip a shift appears on, not the payment date. If a shift is approved after the Wednesday deadline, the original payslip is updated.
Each payslip consists of four sections:
- Basic information: general information about you and your contract.
- Gross amounts per assignment: your earnings and hours worked per shift.
- From gross to net: how your gross pay is converted into your net pay.
- Accruals overview: an overview of accrued amounts, such as holiday pay and leave allowances.
Below, we explain what the different items on your payslip mean.
