Pay equity for former employees

Former employees who finished employment on or after 1 June 2023 do not need to do anything. They were paid on 8 August 2023 in the same way as current employees.

Employees who worked in schools or kura who did not use Education Payroll will need to contact their school or kura to arrange payment.
