Useful payroll information
Ensuring you are paid
Step One
You are responsible for keeping a daily record of your hours
(minus meal-breaks). These must be totalled at the end of each
week, or upon completion of your assignment/shift.
Step Two
Both yourself and the Client must sign the timesheet. The top
copy (white) will need to be faxed/posted to Geneva, the middle
copy (yellow) given to the client, and the last copy (pink) will
remain in the book for your personal record.
Step Three
Send us the white copy of the timesheet, either by fax, post or
email. We must receive this by 12 noon on Tuesday of the following
week you have just worked. If we do not receive it, we will not be
able to pay you that week.

Please Note: Some Clients have a one-month cut off period for
receiving invoices for payment so we encourage you to send your
timesheets in on a weekly basis.
In the event that you don't have any timesheets, either use a
Client's timesheet or the Client's letterhead.
You must include the following details:
- Tthe name and signature of the person you are reporting to
- The hours you have worked, minus meal-breaks
- Tour name and signature
- The assignment/shift date
Meal Breaks
- ½ hour meal breaks are NOT to be included in your hours each
day; you are not paid for your ½ hour meal break or any meal break
taken (unless prior approval is made with the Client and Geneva
Health has been notified).
- It is your responsibility at the start of the shift to confirm
with your Duty Manager/Supervisor when meal breaks are
scheduled.
- To ensure that you get your meal break entitlement YOU MUST
check with the Duty Manager/Supervisor in charge during your shift
to make sure you are able to take a meal break
- If you are unable to take a break, which happens on the odd
occasion, you are then required to write "NO BREAK" or "NB" in the
meal break column on your timesheet and have it initialed by the
supervisor.
- If you have not indicated anything in the meal break column
provided, then a ½ hour will be deducted from your hours after 4.5
hours. For example, if you work a 5 hour shift and have not
indicated whether you have taken a break or not, a ½ hr will be
deducted from your hours. Please pay special attention to this when
filling out your timesheet.
Payment of Wages
Wages will be paid directly into your bank account each
Thursday, dependent upon receipt of your completed timesheet. This
may change after a public holiday but you will be advised in
advance. Your Pay Advice will arrive in the mail on either Friday
or Saturday.
If you have any questions call during office hours Monday to
Friday on free phone 0800 436 382 and ask to speak
to Payroll.
