From April 2019 UK employers are required to provide payslips (in either physical or electronic format) to all of their workers and also to record the hours on payslips for those workers whose pay varies according to the amount of time worked.
The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) issued guidance at the end of 2018 to provide employers with greater detail on the new requirements.
The risk to employers is that if a worker doesn’t receive a payslip or their payslip doesn’t include the required level of information then they may choose to bring a claim to an Employment Tribunal.
