By accepting the offer of employment, an employee agrees that Montego Pet Nutrition will deduct payments from their salary in respect of goods purchased by them. The deduction will reflect the nature of the deduction and the Income Tax as prescribed by the laws and regulations governing income tax.

In addition, the following deductions will be made:

• Unemployment Insurance (UIF) in the amount of one per cent (1%) of the Employee’s earnings.

• Any agency fee payable by the employee where an agency shop agreement applies in the workplace.

• Any other deduction which is required or permitted by law, a collective agreement, a court order, or an arbitration award.

ADMINISTRATIVE PAY CORRECTIONS

Montego Pet Nutrition takes all reasonable steps to ensure that employees receive the correct amount of pay in each pay-run and that employees are paid promptly on the scheduled payday. In the unlikely event that there is an error in pay, the employee should promptly bring the discrepancy to the attention of the Payroll Officer. This will enable corrective actions to be made as quickly as possible. 

​

Montego Pet Nutrition may, in the event of any administrative error or inaccuracy recoup any overpayment made to you, including deductions from pay to meet the costs of settling any outstanding debts to Montego Pet Nutrition for which you are personally liable. (E.g., revenue owed to Montego Pet Nutrition and retained by you). All outstanding debts and/or loans will be recovered from the final payment upon termination of employment. This is in addition to any reasonable sum to compensate for property not returned. Amounts due to Montego Pet Nutrition will be deducted in lieu of notice periods not worked unless such waiver has been agreed to by Montego Pet Nutrition in writing

​

This process is designed to ensure that disbursements made to employees are above reproach and are at arm’s length. The appropriate backup documentation must accompany all travel claims. For significant disbursements, such as repairs to company equipment, accommodation, entertainment, meals, car hire, and travel tickets, the claim must be supported by a voucher signed by the employee.  

This is essential from a credibility and tax perspective. A daily allowance not exceeding that allowed by the Receiver of Revenue will be paid to cover incidental expenses (e.g., tips, taxis, etc.), which are not substantiated by supporting documentation.
