Nursebuddy payroll allows managers and administrators to run payroll reports for your care workers.

Care workers can have different pay rates for different times of day and different days of the week. Payroll can be calculated for a carer's completed visits. 


Setting Up Your Carer Payroll Rates

1. First go to your Settings menu and select Payroll. Here you can define your different rates of pay and assign them to your carers.

2. When adding a new rate you can determine if you'll use planned hours or reported hours.

3. Click on the rates tab to add the different hourly rates for different times of the day or days of the week. You can add separate rates for bank holidays too which the system automatically calculates. 

4. You can add in mileage and travel time rates here too which will then be pulled into your final payroll report. Learn how to set up your mileage here


Assigning Payroll Rates to Carers

In your settings menu, after setting up the rate plans, click on assign rate plans for carers. You will then see a list of all your carers and you can assign them their individual rate plan. You can also add in an individual carer payroll code if you plan on exporting your payroll reports to use with an external software.

You can also define a default rate plan that will be automatically used for all carers unless another plan is assigned.


Payroll Report 

You'll find your payroll reporting section under the "Insights" heading on the left menu of your account.

You can run a report for any date range you choose but it will show all your carers at once. The report can be grouped by variables such as one of your rates of pay.

Once you're happy with your data, you can export or print directly from Nursebuddy.
