Can I do my own payroll for my hotel or accommodation business?
You can definitely manage payroll yourself for a small hotel with a handful of staff and straightforward pay structures. However, payroll software can be a game-changer, especially in the hospitality industry. It streamlines processes with automation, minimises manual input, aids productivity, and ensures compliance with complex hospitality award rates and tax regulations
Do I need to consider different award rates for hotel staff payroll?
Yes, the applicable award rate depends on the specific roles of your employees. Some common awards include:
- Hospitality Industry (General) Award 2010: Covers a broad range of hotel staff roles (housekeeping, reception, wait staff, cooks, etc.).
- Retail Industry Award 2020: May apply to some staff depending on their duties (e.g., staff selling pre-packaged food items at a kiosk).
How do I handle payroll for tips and service charges for hotel staff?
There are specific regulations regarding tips and service charges. Ensure you have a clear policy outlining how these are distributed among staff and adhere to relevant award or enterprise bargaining agreement (EBA) guidelines. Payroll software can help with calculations and record-keeping for tips and service charges.
How does Payroller work?
Payroller is an STP-enabled software that automatically submits payroll information to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) โ through a secure cloud network โ whenever you perform a payrun.
