How long does an employer have to pay you your final pay if you resign

[Glamourcide]

Yeah I think it's next pay day you have to wait to get your final wages. Hopefully some girls who know what they're talking about will pop in and help out, but from my experience with DH resigning, he's waited until the next pay day to get what's owed to him.

We always processed on the day any immediate resignation, redundancy or termination. So they received their final pay the next day (not dodgy, just practicalities of bank transfers). This was instructed by HR, so I assume there was a requirement for it, this was before all the changes Howard did though.

I used to do payroll and I was always told by the bosses not to process final pays until the next pay run, instead of doing one especially. DH's work does the same thing. I guess that's fair enough if you get paid weekly or fortnightly, but if you get paid monthly, then surely they can do a seperate transaction
