Everything you need to know about payroll and timesheets


Back to career hub

Are you new to temping and have questions about the payroll process, timesheet deadline, and pay day? Jobwise wants to make the temping process as easy as possible for you. Here are some of our most frequently asked questions:

How Does Payroll Work?

At Jobwise, we want to ensure that you get paid on time for all your hard work. To receive your temporary work payment, we ask you to fill in a simple weekly timesheet. This timesheet enables you to record all the hours you have worked. It also ensures that we can transfer your wage directly into your bank account the following week.

In addition to this, we email all your payslips so that you can see what you have earned a couple of days before the money hits your account. We want to make sure that there is no confusion or delay when it comes to your pay.

What is the Timesheet Deadline?

We require all timesheets to be sent to payroll@jobwise.co.uk by 17.30pm on Fridays. All timesheets need to be named, dated, and signed by yourself and the client; otherwise, this may affect your pay.

We understand how important it is for our employees' payments to be accurate and timely; therefore, we request everyone's cooperation in submitting their timesheets promptly.

When is My Official Pay Day?

Your weekly pay will be deposited into your bank account on a Friday. This is considered an official payment day as shown on your payslip.

Your pay may hit your bank before Friday; however, it would be best if you managed direct debits, standing orders, and cash flow accordingly. Plan for money clearing on the official payday which is Friday.

How do I update my personal information?

Any changes to your personal information needs to be sent to payroll@jobwise.co.uk.

Do I get SSP/SMP/SPP/Adoption pay and leave?

Any of the above would depend on each individual’s circumstances, please contact our payroll department on 01204 550 660.

If I’ve finished my temp assignment and don’t start my next one immediately, do I need to request my P45 and holiday pay?

Not immediately no, your entitlement will stay on our system for up to 4 weeks. Once you have been inactive for 4 continuous weeks, we will automatically send a P45 to the HMRC.

Jobwise is committed to making the process as easy as possible for you, from payroll and timesheet deadlines to payday. If you have any other queries or concerns, please feel free to get in touch with us, and we'd be happy to help.
