Joe Joe Joe, you really havent taken the time to listen.
Employees who get paid on a monthly basis are supposed to be paid 2 weeks in advance and arrears. This makes it a neutral pay method and not an advanced payment method as you so suggest, as the employee also gets paid two weeks in arrears, so dont just use a portion of the facts to serve your purpose.
If you check industrial law, you will see this is the case, otherwise what is to stop people like you who wish to pay employees 2 or even 3 months in arrears??
"So keep on bagging them if you want but often on this forum punters want it both way"
If what they have done here is true, you are totally missing the point!!
"What you want is for them to keep up all the bad practices of past management and that hasn't worked for the company then. Now that they are effecting change we bag them again"
This is a standard employment practice Joe and has nothing to do with past bad management, that you obviously do not understand, because when an employee starts with a company being paid monthly they initially can be paid up to 1 month in arrears waiting for their first pay, so the company has already had full use of that money. If then you want to change them to fortnightly they then are paid another 3 weeks in arrears, the employee doesnt receive their annual entitlements.
Should the employee receive their annual entitlements Joe or are you against that too??
Is that so hard to understand Joe??
"If any of my employees wanted to be paid two weeks in advance they would be told to find another job"
Joe, you are missing the point again!! the company offered employees that, they didnt ask for it!!!
. "Certainly I would not do it in an industry that has a high staff turnover anyway"
Who says there is a high turnover of staff?? In actual fact if there is a high turnover of staff you would be better off to pay them monthly.
Thank god there are industrial laws to stop employers taking total advantage of employees!!!
Do you actually understand mutual consent Joe??
Cheers
