Didn't bother to tell us and as a result no one got paid. Thankfully one employee noticed about 3.00p.m. on a Friday and the next two hours were wasted fixing the bank password and getting pays to staff.

All I would say is that employers do strive to ensure staff are paid, and banks possibly deliver service while screwing us with fees. We are still waiting for a letter of apology from the bank, but ##### happens and there is no point getting fired up about it until you know the facts.

I hear what you're saying but this employer has a checkered past that I found out about early this week. He tried to screw his employees out of their super. It was only found when an ex employee tried to transfer his super. One employee hadn't recieved any super in the two years he had worked there. He also has never given an employee a pay docket until I came along and said he has no choice. Easy way of concealing the fraud of not paying the super... So my first reaction is he's playing games. Needless to say if the pay isn't in the bank on tuesday night, after I talk with him tueday morning, I won't even phone him wednesday to tell him I quit.

Sorry again Mat!

The easiest way of concealing not paying super is simply to not pay it! The pay slip is evidence for you that the employer allocated the money to be paid, but depending on a number of factors, he isn't due to pay until the end of the month/quarter or under some circumstances, end of the year (although I seem to recall that one has now gone by the by)!

Super must now be paid every three months. You can go to the ATO web site and get these dates. The next payment is due in about 10 days time, but check for the exact date.

Matthew,

I hear what you are saying as well and understand what you are getting at. The tax office takes a dim view of employers bludging on their super obligations. Even though pay slips are obligatory they do not guarantee that payments are being made, if you quit check the place your super is meant to be going and if it is not paid up to 31st March (it's due 28th April), check to see when last paid. If Decembers is not in I would definately go to the ATO and keep on the tax offices tail to make sure they are following it up. Non payment of PAYG and superannuation is an indicator of a business in financial stress. Unpaid wages are a different problem your best bet is contact first then the appropriate government department second.

Goodluck, John

So Mat didya get paid??

Or are you between positions right now?

Cheers,

P (Hanging in suspense!)
