For any further information, please email: payroll@cis-security.co.uk

EarlyPay Benefit

What is it?

Early Pay is a mobile app that gives you flexibility in how you take your pay. It is like pay on-demand which means you can take some of your pay early, in the case of an emergency.

How does it work?

Early Pay lets you see how much you could withdraw from the wages you’ve earned so far in a month. You can withdraw some of these funds and the money will then appear in your bank account in a few minutes.

How does my balance get updated?

Your draw down balance will be updated once a week (by Wednesday midday) by the payroll team and it will only include worked shifts already completed , as per your Timegate diary. As an example, on Monday 21st August 2023, the update in Early Pay will be for period 1st to the 20th August. What pay elements are included in my balance? Only worked and confirmed shifts will be included in the available balance. Holidays will not be included.

How much can

I drawdown?

A maximum 50% of your earned shifts (with a £400 cap) in a calendar month. A transaction fee of £2.75 will also apply for every transaction you make. So, for example, if you withdraw £50 on the 21st August 2023 and a further £50 on the 23rd

August, then on pay day 8th September you will have a deduction of £105.50. This is for the two withdrawal amounts of £50 plus £2.75 fee for each transaction made.

Can I postpone or split the repayment of any amounts drawn?

It is not possible to postpone or split any of the drawdown amounts. These will be deducted from the next available pay date. We advise that you only withdraw if absolutely necessary and only if you know you can afford to have a deduction of your next wages.

IMPORTANT POINTS

• Only withdraw if it is absolutely necessary.

• Keep any withdrawals to a minimum, in order to avoid re-occurring transaction fees. The payroll team can review and suspend individual access if Early Pay is not used responsibly.

• Early Pay works in line with our pay periods which are calendar months. Balances will revert to zero on the 1st of each month and you will not be able to withdraw funds until the payroll team has updated the system.

• During payroll processing periods, Early Pay will be suspended by the payroll team and reactivated around pay day.

• Early Pay gets locked by 5pm on the last day of each month.
