Hello. Can anyone tell me please what the dates are from for when we get paid? Like from what date to what is the cut off date? Also is overtime in them same dates? Thanks

Hello,

I'm going by what's shown on my new Work & Pay slip but will assume it's the same for non Work & Pay Colleagues:

Contracted hours are from 18th October to 14th November
Absences from 18th October to 14th November which have been authorised on or before 10th November
And any overtime, temporary adjustments or unplanned absences from the 11th October to 7th November.

My understanding now is that we got paid yesterday and cut off was the Saturday before the Friday pay date? (Prev it was the Thursday before payday) then any contracted shifts we have in between Saturday cut off date and today was paid yesterday, and any over time that was done will be in next months pay? So if today is my contracted shift and today’s shift has been included in yesterday’s pay, say if I was off sick today, I will have been paid for the shift (yesterday) but next months pay it will be adjusted and the pay changed to sick pay or whatever method is to be used? Very confusing saying the pay period includes not only days after the cut off date but the day after pay day! 😂 Classic Tesco! I have raised questions with managers today and no one understands this new system and I’m told it will work itself out and in the mean time I’m supposed to be happy with being underpaid 🙃

With Work & Pay you are paid until the first Saturday after pay day i.e. today.

If you happened to phone in sick they'd code it on the system and you'd seen an adjustment in next month's pay (December 11th).

The Tesco week runs Sunday to Saturday which is why they've gone along with the same on Work & Pay I'd imagine.

Yes, it's a new system, and it's going to take some time getting used to it after HRAM2 but so long as the right people ( :D) do what they are meant to e.g. request overtime, allocate overtime, put absences in the tablet etc then it won't result in us mere mortals being expected to being happy with underpayments  ???

Colleagues have always been paid basic pay up to and including the day/Saturday after pay day.

Hey, sorry... I know this isn't the right place to post this... but how do I actually create a new forum post?

Literally just signed up and can't see how to make a post...  :)

Is the standard wage £9.30? I've just started an in our induction was told ££9.30 but have been paid £8.72 an hour. Can anyone clarify? Thanks

Mumtotwo88

New starters get £8.72 per hour which increases to £9.30 after 3 months.

Do those in Main store get location pay ? 

Doesn't matter what type of store, just location, as long as it's not a subsidiary company (So not a Jacks, One Stop or Booker chain) they'll either get the home counties rate or the inner M25 rate.

A new festive has started are still getting discount card .

All colleagues whether permanent or temporary qualify for a staff discount card after 3 months service. Why should a temporary colleague be treated differently?

can anyone help me with the cut off dates for contracted and overtime shifts for the pay day just gone?

thanks!

Could someone tell me how overtime pay works? I have read posts where people say that it is paid the next month?

I am just slightly concerned as I am a temp worker and have done a lot of overtime over the last two weeks. This week I will be doing 40 hours.

My manager asks me often at the last minute and I am worried it will not be in the system. I do of course sign in and sign out but I am not sure if this is enough. As they do literally ask me the day before, so surely that would not be in the system?

How does this work? And when will I be paid the overtime?

Overtime and contracted hours are paid in the same pay period, if it's on the cut off it will be in your upcoming payslip.

Thank you, that’s reassuring!

Hi, I’ve been here now 3 months and it falls part way through the 4 week pay period would my rate of pay just automatically increase?? I don’t need to go through anything formal?

You don't need to do anything. Established pay is changed automatically.

Don't make the assumption that all your pay should be at the new rate though. It will only apply from the exact date of the change.

Guidance, if you don't already, you & everybody else are advised to keep a record of your hours worked, perhaps in a small notebook.

Indeed Nomad, not just within Tesco but advice I was given when first entering the workforce many years ago was to keep a record of the hours and overtime you do, comes in useful in the event of a query or dispute.

Hi, I've just rejoined Tesco. I worked this Sunday my first contracted shift- I understand the next pay day is this coming Friday will I be paid for this then?

Any idea how we get payslip access? My store is work and pay but i only work one day a week and never see my line manager

Our tesco -->   work and pay  ---> my payslip. Assuming you have your   john.smith@tesco.com  login details.

Tesco owns you

National minimum wage is £8.91 and that is the new starter rate for first 3 months then it goes up to £9.55

Just started tesco myself, induction day next week then straight in on 2nd December. Will I be paid before Christmas anyone know.

10th December is pay day but you will get money for days up and including Sunday 5th Dec.
Then next pay day is 7th January.
No chance for extra pay just before Xmas to make final shopping. But you will get free chocolate selection.

So is the text at the top of the pay dates chart on VLH incorrect ?

Free chocolate selection? 🤔 I've Never had any free chocolate for past 3 years

Is that a free selection between the last chocolate left in the box that no-one else wants and nothing?

When did the cut off date change from the last Thursday before payday to the Saturday after payday? I have recently left and feel like i have been paid wrong because of it

cut off changed with the new system, HRAM uses Thursday as the cut off; work and pay cuts off on Saturday.

Thanks. When the cut off date changed over then, am I right in thinking i should of got a bigger wage than usual? (The days worked between the Thursday before payday and the Saturday after payday)

It's only overtime that changed, contract hours are still the same, and it's only overtime that has been pre-booked, depending on what overtime you did for those 3 days could have made a slightly bigger pay, but that's only if your store is organised enough to pre-book the holiday otherwise it would still be in the next pay.

The date it changed would be dependant on when your store changed system, if you access your payslip through payslipview.com and always has then it means your store won't have swapped over, otherwise it'll be when you started using work and pay to check your payslip

My store changed to work and pay around August/September time I think it was.  I did my last shift 2 weeks after pay day so I expected 3 weeks worth of pay (if the cut off date was the Thursday before payday). However I only received 2 weeks worth of pay, my old boss doesn't understand it either and when he has been in touch with colleague help they just tell him I was only owed 2 weeks wages.

If the cut off date had changed somewhere from Thursday the week before payday to the Saturday after payday then am I owed an extra week somewhere? Baffled

that's only for overtime, contract shifts on both systems are until the Saturday after payday. Don't ask me why they don't pay the same cutoff for overtime as contract shifts, that's just Tesco making it more complicated than it has to be. So for example I'll take the September pay date.

Pay date - 17th September
Contract shifts paid - 22 August to 18th September
Overtime shifts paid - 15 August to 11th September

I had my induction on 18th of March, worked a full shift on 19th of March.

I was in work last night (25th) and will be again tonight (26th) will I get paid all of this on 1st of April or have I missed the cut off for the hours I have worked this week?

Will depend on a few things

1. Which payroll system your store is on
2. Whether those dates are contracted or overtime shifts
3. If Store is on Work & Pay, which date they sign off payroll on cutoff weekend
4. If your manager has done their job and either put you on system or signed off exceptions, depending on which payroll system your store in on.

Either way the 18th & 19th will definitely be paid

Thank you for replying.

I'm on the system - I can see all my bank details etc on Our Tesco when I log in.

The hours I've worked are all contracted - not overtime.

When I log in I can see the store is on Work and Pay. I'm not sure which payroll system we are on though.

If they are contracted shifts, then yes you'll be paid for them regardless of which system your store is on and which cut off day they use.

When do payslips normally show? I've logged into my account and have no payslips available.

You have to login to OurTesco and go to work and pay

I have but it just says no payslips available. I started on 18th of March so wondering if I won't get paid until the next pay day instead of this weeks one?

You'll be able to view it tomorrow

You're very welcome

hi in relation to our wage slip and with regards to overtime rates when does someone receive 1.5 plus 33% as opposed to just 1.5 when working overtime?

Are you sure you're talking about Tesco?

Tesco only pays single time for overtime, I remember hearing about "double bubble" ot rates for hours above 48 hours in a week but they haven't done that for years now.

You only get time 1.25 if you work a Bank Holiday or a Sunday.
