Payslip Calculator Template Example for NZ Employees

In New Zealand, the employee has the legal right to see information about how their employer has worked out wages and see the time records relating to their hours of work. Generating payslips from an online payroll wage system, where staff can get them each pay run through a mobile app, or automatically by email is an easy and efficient way to provide this information.

Putting together a payslip for your employees can be complicated especially when you have to calculate everything yourself. We can help with that by taking away some of the manual calculations in our payslip calculator that can calculate all the things you will normally see on a payslip including PAYE! Simple. Scoll down to check it out.

If you are wanting a simple downloadable word template of a payslip that you can manually input the amounts and calculations or if you aren't too sure on what some of the terms mean, then check out our Payslip Template Example blog here.

A payslip calculator lets you take the manual calculations out of the payslip, you can download our free sample of a payslip calculator template which has now been updated to reflect the new minimum wage and tax rate changes for FY23. This has some handy formulas already inputted into the document that will automatically calculate your employee's pay for the period with deductions and holiday pay.

You can pick the employees tax code, KiwiSaver contributions and pay frequency from drop down menus, enter in some info like hourly rate and hours each pay run and the template will calculate the rest for you. Easy!

This payslip calculator is great for part-time and casual workers, or other employees who have varying hours.
