Hi,
The deadline for delivering payrolls to workers is 5 days of the first following month, although exceptions are considered depending on the type of contract and job positions.
It is mandatory for the company to provide payroll to its workers. Labour regulations establish that the employer must give a payslip to each employee.
Furthermore, the Workers' Statute establishes that the company must deliver a detailed payslip to each worker with information on gross and net salary, as well as deductions made and tax withholdings.
If the company refuses to give you payslips, it means that it is failing to meet its legal obligations. This can not only generate distrust but also legal problems for both the employer and the employee. Additionally, it can reflect a lack of transparency and indicate possible irregularities in labour management.
Steps to follow if the company does not want to give you payroll slips:
-
Request it in writing. Submit a formal request to your Human Resources department or your direct supervisor. Specify that you need a copy of your payslip and keep a copy of this request for your records.
-
Consult with a gestor. If you do not get a response, it is advisable to go to a gestor or a specialized lawyer. They can guide you on your rights and the next steps to take.
-
File a complaint with the Labour Inspection. If you have already taken the previous steps and the company still does not deliver the payrolls, you can turn to the Labor Inspection. This body is responsible for conducting an investigation and sanctioning the company if non-compliance is confirmed.
-
Resort to legal action. As a last resort, you can initiate legal action to demand compliance with your labour rights. A lawyer can assist you in this process to ensure you receive all necessary documentation.
Good luck!
