Pay periods are weekly or fortnightly by agreement (monthly may be set for annualised wage and Managerial staff salary arrangements). Except on termination, wages are paid on a day other than Friday, Saturday or Sunday, though the Friday of a public holiday week may be used with majority agreement. Payment is by cash, cheque or electronic transfer at no cost to the employee (the employer may choose cash). An employee paid by cash or cheque who waits more than 15 minutes to be paid is paid at the overtime rate for the excess, and one with a rostered or accrued day off on pay day may elect to be paid before going off duty. On termination the employer must pay wages and all amounts due under the award and NES within 7 days (or at the end of the last engagement for casuals paid per engagement), subject to Commission orders and authorised deductions. Payslips must separately identify allowances (Regulations 3.33(3) and 3.46(1)(g)).
