Out of curiosity, is your manager allowed to open them if sealed/stapled? Or is it just for payroll?
How does yours all work? Our pay is all computerised so the boss has to see it to put into the computer otherwise they may be faxed thru as payroll is elsewhere to where I actually work. Doesn't reall answer your question does it.
In the Department I worked for, payroll was the last to view any Stat Decs or medical certificates as the majority leave was approved by the Manager. If documents were forwarded directly to payroll, they would automatically be forwarded to the persons Manager for them to sight and approve. So, yes if the documents are related to any form of 'leave' and if the Manager is the first point of call as approver, then they are allowed to open them. Payroll will only process the leave and check the application to ensure it complies with the current EA.

At my work, my supervisor sights the original, and they have to "approve" the sick leave form. An electronic copy and the form then goes to payroll. I think that's pretty standard in a large organisation.
Ours need to see cert so they can approve it on computer that is roster and pay all in one system. We do not have time sheets.
