Printed payslips issue to 38 staff in my Department. All other staff have access to their payslip via an on-line facility. The costs associated with issuing of payslips relate to the printing and delivery of same. The printing of payslips is part of the overall payroll process and it is not possible to disaggregate the cost for the printing element of the process. Delivery of payslips to staff who have decided to avail of a printed payslip is via the established internal mail system. This system incorporates collection and delivery of all items of internal mail of which payslips would be a very minor element. It is not possible to disaggregate the cost of payslip delivery from overall costs. A small number of payslips are delivered externally and the cost to my Department is €230 per annum.
