Overtime
How to claim
Employees must have approval in advance of working the paid additional hours from:
- a manager of Grade 12 or above
- or, a budget holder as determined by the head of service
Upon completion of the additional hours, employees need to claim on Business World for time worked over the full-time hours for the role. Guidance on entering variable payments can be found on FreshService.
We make all additional hours payments retrospectively. We include them in the employee's salary in the subsequent pay period.
Additional holiday pay
When employees take annual leave, the pay they receive reflects what they would have earned if they had been at work. We will pay basic pay for that period of leave (annual salary / 12 months). For those employees who work overtime, they will receive additional holiday pay.
For further details read guidance for calculating additional holiday pay.
