3. PAYMENT OF SALARIES AND WAGES Your initial rate of pay, the intervals at which it will be paid, and whether any bonus or commission applies to you are explained in your letter of appointment and/or individual Statement of Terms and Conditions. Salaries and Wages are paid by bank transfer to a bank or building society account of your choice. You will be provided with access to receive your payslip electronically online. The Company reserves the right at any time to review, vary or withdraw any of its bonus or commission arrangements and will give you at least one month’s notice of any change. Any payments made under any bonus or commission arrangement will be at the sole discretion of the Company. The Company is required by law to make certain deductions from your pay, which includes National Insurance contributions and PAYE income tax. As a term of your employment, the Company has the right to make deductions from your wages/salary any sums, which you owe to the Company or as a result of the Company’s overpayment made because of (but not limited to): •
Unpaid private mileage or private mileage, which exceeds the agreed upper limit
•
Reimbursement to the Company in respect of outstanding monies owed for wage advances, loans, goods, materials and/or services received including company car scheme by you

•
In the event of termination of employment, an employee failing to give the correct notice may have a deduction made from any monies due, equal to the amount that would have been earned from the date of leaving until the end of the remaining unworked notice period
•
In the event of restricted access to work due to poor weather conditions, fuel shortages, pandemics etc., the Company reserves the right to make such absences unpaid and therefore deductible from salary payments
