Happy Valentine! It’s a New Payslip in The Barnet Group!

Fingers crossed colleagues are able to access their payslips today and everyone has been paid correctly.

We had been promised that some of our reps in The Barnet Group or who work irregular hours would be consulted with in respect of the new payslip to help make sure it meets the needs of all workers. This did not happen. We can only hope that all colleagues can now access a payslip which shows them more detail about how their pay is made up. This was the opportunity presented when The Barnet Group decided to have a different payroll provider from the Council.

If you are experiencing difficulties accessing or understanding your payslip please follow the instructions on the FAQ sheet below.

If you are unable to resolve these issues, your manager should assist you. If none of this is working, please contact your union rep or contactus@barnetunison.org.uk or 020 8359 2088.

Barnet UNISON has been trying to find out whether The Barnet Group is being compliant with Pensions Regulations around the retention of records. To date we have had no response despite 3 emails over a period of a number of weeks. We may now need to take independent legal advice. In the meantime we can only encourage all workers to ensure you have every payslip downloaded, saved or printed off for your own records. We have had instances of people being told they have payments missing in their pension records and losing out on pensions when they need them so please DO keep records. Do this BEFORE the end of April.
