Pay dates for December 2021 and January 2022 have been brought forward to support colleagues over the Christmas and New Year period. December pay date will be 20 December 2021 and January 2022 pay date will be 21 January 2022. 

As pay dates have been brought forward we have to work to very strict deadlines for submissions with no scope for flexibility. The deadlines are set to ensure there is sufficient time to process all information so that critical payroll processes can be completed accurately and timely to minimise errors for all colleagues. Unfortunately, late submissions cannot be accepted and any roster not finalised in time will need to be removed from the pay run which means that colleagues could potentially be paid incorrectly.
