Frequently asked Questions.

How will I know how much money I’ll receive in my bank account?

Prior to your pay day you will receive a wage slip by email showing your earnings before and after any deductions.

You will also receive a notification in the Paylinks app which will advise you on your pay in addition to your payslip which will give you a full break down.

Why do I have pension deductions on my payslip?

Law in the UK requires all employers to ‘automatically enrol’ their qualifying employees into a workplace pension scheme. A qualifying employee is any employee of any nationality who ordinarily works in the UK, who is aged 22 or over and earns more than £10,000 per year. Employees falling outside of this may also elect to join the work place pension voluntarily.

This will apply to those being paid through Red Ark umbrella or PAYE services. We postpone deductions for 90 days and allow workers to opt out of pension deductions at the end of this period.

How do I make sure my tax code is up to date?

In order to ensure you are not being over taxed you can update your P45 figures by sending us an email at info@red-ark.co.uk with your full name, the name of your agency and your P45 from your last employer.

Why do you need my right to work information?

In the United Kingdom all employers are required by law to check that their employees have the right to work in the UK. Whether you are from the UK, the EU or further afield your right to work must be checked
