If you are not happy with the assignment you are working on, it is important that you complete the shift/day. Please telephone us to explain the problem and we will attempt to resolve it and failing that we will try and find you alternative employment.
Timesheets
Timesheets are usually sent to the site manager who ensures correct hours are logged according to your attendance. You must make sure that you sign in and out every day, otherwise your timesheet might be wrong. The recruitment team will notify you in advance if we need you to manage your own timesheets.
Payment
We will pay you weekly in arrears (not a week in hand). e.g. if you work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday one week, we will process payment for you for these days/hours the following week on Friday (and so on).
Payments are processed on Fridays and sent directly into your bank account.
If you are a PAYE worker, your nominated Umbrella Company will send you your payments. You will also receive a text message and an email from them with a pay slip. If you don’t receive one by 13 o’clock on a Friday, please contact the Umbrella company or our office to check if we have received your hours.
If you have your own limited company, you will have to send us your invoice on Thursdays.
Wage Queries
We always check the timesheets before we send your hours to the umbrella company or your accountants. Unfortunately mistakes do happen, so if you are not sure whether your payment or hours are correct, please call the office and we will check.
