Payroll

University employees can access payslips and P60s online, via HR Self-Service. Visit the Staff Gateway page for more information.

Departmental and divisional teams are responsible for approval of key contractual arrangements which affect payroll, and ensuring the appropriate action is taken to reflect them in PeopleXD. PeopleXD is supported by the HR Systems Team in the People Department. The People Department also ensures compliance with employment law and oversees policy on pay and benefits.

The Payroll team in the Finance Division is responsible for ensuring that salaries and allowance payments are made correctly and on time. The team ensures compliance with national minimum wage legislation and with tax law. This includes applying tax codes, calculating deductions, managing statutory payments like sickness or parental leave and ensuring timely tax and pension contributions are made. The Payroll team can also advise on expenses and benefits, employment tax status, and manage the University Relocation scheme.
