Canteen wage payment occurs fortnightly. I usually process the payroll and load the payment into BOQ on Monday mornings. It would be great if the two approvals were completed by Monday afternoon or evening, so that the Canteen ladies can receive their pay on Monday.
Otherwise, Tuesdays are acceptable, even though I might feel guilty about understanding a late wage payment. I got a complaint regarding a Tuesday wage payment when I first started working on the Canteen payroll two years ago. I managed to get the job done on Monday.
However, I understand that we’re all volunteers and no guarantee for a fixed available timeslot. So I would say, let’s do our best to let the Canteen ladies get their pay on Mondays, fortnightly, but on Tuesdays, even on Wednesdays (when there are long weekends) would be acceptable (we’ve survived).
