If you haven’t already, you should soon receive an email with login details to our online portal. From here you can enter your Tax File Number, superannuation fund, and bank details. 

Please ensure that you read & agree to declare your Superannuation  information. You can access and edit this information by clicking on the “Resume TFN Declaration” button under the “Tax & Super” tab.

If you do not have a Superannuation Fund or do not enter your Fund information, your Super payments will automatically be transferred to Cox Purtell’s default Super Fund – Prime Super, which will create a new Super account for you.

You will be sent another email shortly with login details to Astute Payroll, where you can amend your details and submit your timesheet.

It is your responsibility to ensure that the details on your file are correct and your timesheet is completed by close of business each Friday and approved by 11am on a Monday morning, for timely payment.

Please ensure your bank details, Tax File Number, and Superannuation details are uploaded onto this system prior to your first pay.

Please note, you will not have access to your timesheet until your WorkPro and Referoo details are completed. It is therefore in your best interest to complete these ASAP

If you know that your timesheet approver will be out of office, please contact us with an alternative approver to ensure we can process your pay.

Off-Set Provision Clause: The pay rate quoted, where it is above the Modern Award minimum rate of pay, may also be used to absorb hours of overtime where overtime is worked or an allowance is to be paid under the modern award or provides for a transitional payment where there is a difference between the old award and new applicable Award. The exact number of hours that can be worked before overtime and meal allowance payments are applicable depend upon the award, the pay rate, the award level and also the working pattern of the candidate.

Please ensure that you enter your bank details correctly into the Astute portal. If you need to make any changes to them, you must do this yourself as we cannot do this on our end.

Payroll is processed every Monday and Tuesday afternoons after 2.00pm. Depending on who you bank with, your wages should be in your account at any time from then until midnight on that day.

If you do not submit and have your timesheet approved by this cut off, your pay will then be processed on the next pay run.

If you accrue any expenses in your temporary assignment, we will need written confirmation from your hiring manager that they are happy to pay expenses. If this is the case, you can enter these through the astute portal online. These will then be submitted to your manager for approval and once approved, will be paid into your next pay cycle.

It is law that you must take a 30 minute break for every 5 hours worked. If you haven’t been offered a break, please let us know immediately.

As your employer, should you experience any problems or have any questions while working in this assignment, 

please contact your consultant at Cox Purtell, not your supervisor at the company.
