If you clocked out at 5:57pm (for example) but you were meant to be working until 6pm it wouldn't generate an exception.

Quote from: PurpleRose on 12-06-23, 07:06AMNo because that would cause an exception. This is the thing Tesco want to move away from.

Yeah but as long as my wages are right an exception doesn't matter to me, if I've been asked to come in at short notice and the manager hasn't adjusted it.

Was it what you was expecting or was it less than expected???
I got my tax back today and was about £2k more than I was expecting

Nightworker, my accrued holiday pay was what I was expecting, less 20% tax & 12% NI. No apology or explanation as to why it wasn't paid with the redundancy. Means I paid £300 extra in NI as it would only have been 2% if it was all paid in one payment, with the upper earnings limit on NI.

Hi everyone, I have finally received my cheque from HMRC as I paid to much tax when I left on the 29th April.  Please check your tax as I was taxed 40% and have just got back 11k.

Tax man wont give me rebate as now in a new job they told me I'll get tax rebates  8-)until end of tax year    now just sorted my tax code after 2 hours on the phone with HMRC very helpful... Tesco's not great at personal help with redundancy... like to know how others getting on

I've had an email from HMRC to tell me that my tax code has changed due to my earnings and that I haven't paid enough tax this year. No mention of the fact that I paid too much tax on my redundancy... I started a new job 2 weeks after I left Tesco and wasn't taxed in the first payday as I hadn't received my p45. I sent it to my new job's payroll as soon as I got it and this month I've been taxed correctly. I've filled in the form online at HMRC and adjusted my earnings to be correct.  it's just been a bit of hassle and Tesco haven't helped at all.

So yesterday I was paid my accrued holiday, but I suspect the tax and NI is way out.
I'm two weeks away from starting a new job, does anyone think it's worth calling HMRC for a tax rebate now? Or should I just wait until end of tax year?

Upto you, why would anyone else know the answer

@Fatlad, just gauging people's feelings on it. Should I waste time to get cut off again? Or should I just suck it up and wait until the end of the tax year?

I also had the letter stating I was underpaying tax and have spoken to the tax office after a very frustrating 1/2 hour trying to get through their automated systems and on hold. They admitted the new tax code was wrong and agreed to change it to correct it by the end of the year.
Despite their own calculator saying I should pay £7000 less in tax for the full year than I have already paid the woman I spoke to was adamant I had only overpaid by £180 so far and would continue to have my pension taxed at 40%.

Something I may have missed in the thread, or may not have been talked about.
Those of us who have just been paid accrued holidays, do we receive a 'pay slip' for this? Would we also receive a new P45?
I don't know why, but I really do think this payment will have some implications and cause disruption with our tax for the current year.

Agreed
It really should have all been paid with redundancy as it has now screwed tax and ni up.
My last pay slip posted to me said I have paid 13700 tax but my rebate was for 9k
Go figure!!!

Thanks again to Tesco !!!
I've been on the phone to HMRC regarding tax from my redundancy only
To be told I can't have a tax rebate as Tesco has messed up once again by giving the  payment from accrued holidays after they payed out the redundancy so I have to wait a further 8 weeks to phone and request for rebate of tax .
What a shambles Tesco have made of this redundancy

If you are in the Union i would ask them for advice

  I wouldn't ask your rep, as they probably won't have a clue if they're not particularly familiar with the procedures in their own right!

USDAW do not train their reps in tax procedures, they give a book of home based training, which goes through the basics, with multiple choice questions.
USDAW is renowned for putting up posters stating speak to your rep for advice!

If you ring the area office, they may have more knowledgeable officers who could advise.

If you are a member, or should I say, you used to be a member, then I doubt USDAW would care. You don't pay into the union anymore and are no longer their concern.
As for the big T, for those left behind I feel sorry for you if there's a wage issue in the future. The accrued holidays were on the system and should not have created an issue.
I'm just going to chalk it up to experience with this shambles of a company and just wait until the end of the tax year now to receive any refund.

There is a division in our store on how the TMs feel.
the Grocery,nonfood,bws,backdoor,health and beauty, non food, gm Manager (all one job)
and the produce,bakery,dairy,stock admin, merchandising manager (all one job)
Hate it and are under huge stress and presure

the
Checkout desk cashoffice and trolly manager who has 4-5 team support is fine
the dot com manager with 2 team supports is fine too.

Any one heard anything about 4day working week for night managers yet?

Trial being extended until end of year and no decisions taken until then

Not been enough time to effectively review data/feedback so far (and also getting through Christmas period mentioned too)

Came down on comms sometime this week. Interestingly it mentioned for nights "team managers and shift leaders" . I wasn't aware until this point that shift leaders were included

How do you know if you're on the trial?
Are all night managers working 4 nights?

My night managers and the night shift leader are on 4 nights. They prefer it.

yep only applies to night managers not days, apparently cause they werent being given much of a day off, so by doing this they get a rest period instead, they are doing it in and around us, just recently hired a few extra shift leaders too so they can rotate through of a weekend off.

This is absolutely shocking this was briefed out back when lead nights got let go and said we would be updated with a new brief in week 10! The original was all about night works health, wellness, work life balance and mental health said nothing about a trial and now all of a sudden they need more data!? Like what!? It's bull!!

Is it just for night managers?or are full time night colleagues included in the trial?or is their wellbeing not important
