Payroll/Uniform ordering.

Post by J_FD »

Hi guys,

Started with RM yesterday with induction and first day in my DO today. All good so far, but when I call to order uniform and give my payroll number the lady said I’m not yet on the system but may be by tomorrow. So I called HR to make sure everything is ok, but then the man on the line told me it will be weeks before I’m on the system!

I’m confused as I thought I would be able to order uniform once I have my payroll number?

And also, will I still get paid this Friday?

I may be worrying about nothing, but I want to make sure everything’s alright.

Have tried to order online but won’t let me login to dimensions (probably because my payroll number isn’t on the system yet).

Thanks guys!

Hi there !

I started with RM last Monday, 14/01/19.

From my personal experience if you have a payroll number you're a RM employee and should be on the system ? Seems bizarre.

With regards to payment i can confirm i did get paid in my first week.

Regards

I start on 31st and had my contract through today and phoned and ordered mine.

You can only order items online once you have been with them for 6 months is what I was told when I phoned

Hi, if you phone the ordering line, you'll be able to get 5 shirts, fleece, trousers and shoes.

Hope that helps.
