Question

Our payroll is split into calculating the payroll, and disbursing. Since most of our employees are employed as award wage bases, we calculate the payroll per hour in line with the payroll regulations and act. The payroll process commences once the recruitment is completed and contracts have started. Wage for majority and salary for exclusive would need to be signed and all relevant documents e.g. tax declaration form, superannuation form, personal information form, and code of conduct documents.

In addition, the payroll department will provide the employee with a complete induction pack to ensure that the employee payroll can be set up in the system for payment. Timesheets of weekly hours need to be provided and signed by manager to ensure employee is paid correctly and timely.

A potential risk regarding the payroll activities is incorrect payment calculated for employees (Considine et al. 2016). To prevent this risk from occurring, Integrated Innovations has an automated system that converts signed off timesheets to the correct payment for each employee. Accounts employees check this for variances before payment is made and payslips are sent.

How can present this information mentioning 1 risk & control?
