PAYE Worker Procedures
Congratulations on the start of your assignment with Priority Placements (“PP”) we hope that your assignment with us will be a success.
Please note the following PP payroll procedures:
- Please complete your time-sheets on a weekly basis, a copy of the timesheet is available to for you to complete and print on our website.
Fax your timesheet to us on 405 3545, or email payroll@priorityplacements.ie
Please ensure that all details are legible and any corrections that are made need to be initialled by your authorised signatory.
-
The payroll deadline is strictly 5:30pm on Monday, (any timesheets received after this will be processed in the following week's pay run), and providing we receive your authorised timesheet by this time, your salary will be paid directly into your bank account on the Friday of that week. Therefore, it is essential that we have the correct details sent to us as soon as possible. Any timesheets received with no bank details, will be paid by cheque.
-
Please note that time-sheets received which are incomplete, illegible or without authorised signatory will not be processed.
-
New temporary workers are required to forward a P45 from your previous employment. Please note that if this is not supplied or you do not have a PPS number (see point 5) you will pay tax at the basic rate of 42% (Emergency Tax) with no tax-free allowance, until the correct form has been received. If you have not worked in Ireland for the full tax year, you will be required to contact the revenue commissioners on 1890 333425 and request a certificate of tax credit, you should also quote Priority Placements registration number which is 6329890A.
-
New temporary workers should note that you are required by current legislation to apply for a PPS Number (if you do not already have one), at your Social Welfare Local Office. When the number has been allocated, you should complete Form 12A and send to the local tax office. During the application period Priority Placements will be able to process your salary, as long as valid bank and visa details are received. However, the following tax regulations will apply.
Please note, if you have a PPS number, but no P45 you will be taxed at 20% in month 1 and receive tax credits back according to your relevant tax band. If no P45 is received by month 2, you will be taxed at 20% but with no tax credits. After month 2, all payments will be taxed at the standard emergency rate of 42%.
-
Leaving procedures - when you are nearing the end of your placement with PP and submitting your final time-sheet, can you please email the payroll department on payroll@priorityplacements.ie (or write to us) to confirm that this will be your final week. This will ensure that your pay record is closed down and a P45 issued within 5 working days of your last payment date. If these procedures are not followed correctly, then delays in payment may occur. Should you require any further information on any of the above please do not hesitate to contact us on 01 479 4000.
