The paid amount is not the same as was listed on the shift page. How come?

Several factors can affect your final pay for a Temper Staff shift

Written by Temper | Work to Live

The difference between the listed amount and the amount you received for a Temper Staff shift can be due to several factors:

  • Gross pay vs. net pay: The amount listed on the shift page is your gross pay, but you'll receive a net amount. The net wage is what you take home after Temper deducts taxes and other expenses.

  • Personal tax situation: The listed wage does not account for your personal tax situation. You might have applied for loonheffingskorting (wage tax credit), which would affect your final pay.

  • More hours worked: If you worked more hours than were scheduled, you will be paid for those extra hours. Overtime surcharges may apply if specified in the relevant CAO (Collective Labor Agreement).

  • Travel allowance: You might get a flat rate for the kilometers you had to travel. Read more about travel allowance here.

  • Payslip correction: If a correction was needed for last week's or a previous payslip, it might have been processed on your current payslip. Corrections can be for hours that were under- or over-reported. You will see these adjustments on a revised payslip.

In summary, the listed wage is a gross amount and doesn’t take into account individual tax deductions or additional surcharges. Your final pay will reflect these adjustments.
