October Payroll

The October payroll was processed today and includes all wages earned between 23rd September and 20th October (4 weeks), and will be paid on Friday 27th October.

Payslips have been sent by email.  If you have not already received your payslip by email, please check your email address in TRACKER is correct. The simplest way to amend it is to sign in on any Disclaimer PC as if you were racing.

The November payroll will include all wages earned between 21st October and 17th November (4 weeks), and will be paid on Friday 24th November.

Changes to minimum wages

National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage rates are changing.  From 1 April 2017 the revised rates are:

• £7.50 per hour - 25 yrs old and over
• £7.05 per hour - 21-24 yrs old
• £5.60 per hour - 18-20 yrs old
• £4.05 per hour - 16-17 yrs old

These statutory rates apply to the next pay period that starts after 1st April (i.e. for most people's May pay packets), but as we've always done at Teamworks Karting, we will back-date these pay rises to the April payroll (which started on 25th March).

March payroll

The March payroll was processed today and includes all wages earned between 18th February and 24th March (5 weeks), and will be paid on Friday 31st March.

Payslips have been sent by email.  If you have not already received your payslip by email, please check your email address in TRACKER is correct. The simplest way to amend it is to sign in on any Disclaimer PC as if you were racing.

The April payroll will include all wages earned between 25th March and 21st April (4 weeks), and will be paid on Friday 28th April.

Cyclescheme

This is a reminder for anyone interested in cycling to work.

Teamworks has signed up to a scheme that allows you to buy any new bicycle from your gross pay instead of your net pay.  This will save you AT LEAST 25%, plus you can pay for the bike by interest-free monthly instalments over 12 months.

It's all designed to encourage people to cycle more, and we think that's a great idea.

If you would like to buy a new bike, please follow the links below. Our employer code is: 56ba39.
