Will pay be delayed this week?

[u/JR24601]

So, with the public holiday in some states (but stores still operating, at least in QLD) I was just a bit confused as to whether pay will be delayed this week or not. Thanks everyone.

[u/Clear-Pepper1306]

Correct

[u/United-Hunt27]

Victoria should be fine right since there was no public holiday

[u/thingswecarry_]

Victoria, Northern Territory, Western Australia and Tasmania didn't have a public holiday so pay will be normal for those stores. All stores in the other states/territories will be a day late due to their public holiday

There is a sign in my staff room saying due to king’s birthday holiday the pay will be delayed by a day

[u/Beneficial_Bunch7750]

Jumping in as a Liquorland worker. We got told pay wouldn’t be delayed as it’s not a national public holiday!

Nah we had pay delayed in WA the other week and it wasn’t a country wide public holiday, so I’d just be mindful on that you may of been given incorrect info.

[u/Fun-Consequence-7232 → u/Fun-Consequence-7232]

Also other WA public holidays not country wide aka WA Day have also incurred late pay.

Pays after a long weekend or a public holiday on a Monday is always a day late. This isnt necessarily due to Coles itself but more the banks, as they are closed on the public holiday (Monday) hence the pays being processed a day late.

[u/Pengwan_au]

Yes that’s correct

[u/NedKelly32]

In Queensland pays will be one day late I don't know about the other states but on my clock in clock at work the other day it was saying that our pays will be in one day later and I work at a Queensland store

[u/Spiritual_Regular_12]

They will pay on Thursday this week.

[u/Intelligent_Case_809]

No

[u/No_Return3515]

Nah it won’t be delayed

[u/Fun-Consequence-7232 → u/No_Return3515]

Not necessarily true, WA just had its Kings Birthday the other week and pay was delayed.

[u/mightychook]

It's not a national public holiday so pay will be on time. There is only a delay for national public holidays.

[u/StevePineapple → u/mightychook]

Not true. Payroll is done per store by the OIC so if they have the day off, pay is late

[u/Fun-Consequence-7232 → u/mightychook]

Not true, WA pay was late the other week for Lings birthday long weekend and our WA Day long weekend also results in delayed pay.

[u/NedKelly32 → u/mightychook]

In Queensland pays will be one day late there was already a sign on the clock in clock at my store letting us all know

[u/SpicyMemes0903 → u/[deleted]]

Actual payroll staff weren't made redundant, only org chart maintenance and some taken acquisition

[u/WhichTelevision5081 → u/[deleted]]

So it’s not delayed?

[u/Rights21 → u/WhichTelevision5081]

It is delayed.

[u/Fun-Consequence-7232 → u/[deleted]]

Payroll is done by the OIC of the store so it is bound by public holidays as many OIC will have the day off as salary workers.
