Then please contact your WorkPac Group recruitment coordinator!How were payment summaries sent?This financial year there are no changes to how WorkPac Group employees receive their payment summaries, and it will be emailed to you as per previous years.What about Single Touch Payroll (STP)?As you may have heard, there have been significant changes made in terms of payment summaries and how some employees receive them. Rather than employers sending payment summaries to their employees to then be lodged with the Australian Tax Office, some employers are now required to report pay and superannuation for all employees direct to the ATO. This new process called Single Touch Payroll or STP. There is currently a transition period for companies to start reporting to the ATO and this is different for each company. WorkPac will commence STP early in 2020, and you’ll be notified when this transition happens.Please note that the transition period to STP is different for all companies, so other members of your family may have already transitioned from payment summaries to Single Touch Payroll this year.
