Casual Payroll process changes in 2006
Casual Claims and claiming period
From January 2006 the University of Tasmania will be implementing
system changes for employees paid under the casual payroll. These
changes will affect how you should be claiming for hours worked
and the correct taxation of those hours by our payroll system.
To ensure that you complete your casual claim forms correctly
and thus are taxed in the correct manner please follow the following
guidelines:
-
The period of the claim should be for a period of not
greater than two weeks.
-
Where a period greater than two weeks is to be claimed,
this should be completed using multiple claim forms noting the
relevant period of each claim.
-
Manual tax adjustments will not be performed. Casual
Claim forms will be processed to the system using the period
end date advised on the claim and will be taxed correctly in
the period that that date relates to.
Other Information
While we have this opportunity we would also like to highlight
the following information with respect to the Casual Payroll process:
-
The Casual Employment Authority must be signed and returned
to Human Resources so that it can be processed prior to forwarding
any claims against that authority to the Pay Office. The Casual
Claim form cannot be paid until the Authority has been processed.
-
The Casual Claim form needs to be completed with the appropriate
Casual Employment Authority number and FMIS Account number.
-
Work performed after the expiry of the Casual Authority cannot
be paid on the current authority and a new authority will need
to be completed and sent through to Human Resources to facilitate
payment.
-
When appointing staff against FMIS accounts please ensure
that the appropriate salary and on-cost lines have been opened
in the project prior to sending through any appointment details.
Due to some accounts having funding restrictions on the types
of expenditure able to be incurred this request has to come
from the School/Budget Centre. We do not have FMIS access to
add account lines. Requests should be sent to Financial.Management@utas.edu.au.
