Electronic payrolls

My husband s employer changed to electronic payslips the last printed one was October 2018 since then he has not been able to see his payslip as he has to scan a QR code at work to access this and he does not have a smart phone.he is being made redundant on the 31st January so wants to be able to see exactly what he is being paid,when he put this in writing this morning his manager just laughed at him ,is he entitled to a printed payslip ?

    Yes he is. But there's 17 days to go, this wont be sorted before then.


    I'm not sure about this scan a QR code thing; doesn't make sense.

    Really? We looked into this recently as part of a payroll move and the government policy stated a payslip must be provided, however it doesn't have to be printed (can be online).

    Edit...found it:

    Thanks. I opted out of mine, but my understanding was it had to be available to be printed.


    Which I cant see being possible with the method described

    So you need to contact the HR/payroll dept and ask for a login/code that actually works. You have no legal right to a printed payslip.

    They don't do the log in thing only QR code to scan but he doesn't have a smart phone to be able to scan it that's the problem

    And no one else can let him borrow a smartphone for a day so he can scan them and screenshot for later?

    Ask the person who does pay if they can borrow their phone to send you a screenshot of the payslips.

    As far as im aware it doesnt have to be printed, just have to get a payslip.

    Worth remembering that hell get a p45 which whilst it wont break down, if you know the details (hours worked overtime etc etc etc) you should be able to work out.
