8 Payment

Many tutors are paid via monthly payroll and therefore do not need to submit a timesheet. Please check your contract, or email the Programme Coordinator, before submitting a timesheet. If you teach a module with large student numbers, or more than one module, it’s likely that you meet the criteria for being paid via monthly payroll.

If you are not being paid monthly, via payroll, please complete and return your timesheet to roisin.mccormack@universityofgalway.ie by the 8th of the month for work done in the previous 2 months. For work started in September / October you must submit for payment by the first Thursday in December.  In line with Revenue requirements, you must not wait until January to claim for work done in Sept / October / November this year.  Please note hours on your contract from HR as these are the total number of hours you will be paid for.

In line with Revenue regulations:

• claims should be made within 2 months of completion of work.  Do not wait until January to claim everything, as payroll may refuse to honour claims that are not made in line with regulations
• Claims for hours teaching and delivering on-line support should also be claimed within 2 months of completion
• ‘Student support’ should only be claimed once per semester for each student, but you can divide it across claims, claiming for 1/2 of your student numbers in claim 1 and the remainder in claim 2
• Final date for receipt of occasional staff Time Sheets for Semester 1 for processing by Payroll Bureau is the first Thursday in December.
• Timesheets are to be completed correctly to ensure no undue delays in the payment process.
