Each week we receive a number of payroll questions on our forum, and here are this week’s batch. Can you help with any answers?

Forum Post

I have been told that I have been overpaid for the last 4 years and the company want to reduce my basic salary immediately.  Do I have to repay the overpayment, and who decides how much I should be repaying each month?

I have just learnt the for the last 4 years I have been overpaid becasue of a change of position within the company and the grade that i am now doing is a lower paid band than I was initially employed as.  Do I have to repay all the money for the last 4 years if so who decided as to how much a month I pay.

Further Questions:

1. What action should the employer take in the payroll system to ensure that the correct treatment is applied to a refund of pension contributions?
2. Can someone please review the accuracy of my figures in calculating an allowance payment due to an employee?
3. Can the £8,000.00 qualifying relocation expenses be paid as a lump sum amount to the employee?
4. Does the Fit Note actually have to have the surgery details and doctor’s signature on it before it can be used by payroll?
5. Can we have two SCONs in the same tax reference?
