When you are assigned a role through Manpower Professional, your consultant will provide you with a personal starter pack detailing your assignment information. Below we have listed some of the most useful information on beginning work as a Temporary with Manpower Professional.

Bank details

We pay each week (Friday's) via BACS so please complete a bank details form and also return with your first timesheet. You should notify us immediately of any changes to your bank details, by submitting another form.

It is important to set up a bank account.

Change of address

Notification must be made to us as soon as possible, so that our records can be updated.

Leaving the assignment before completion

Should you receive an offer of a permanent position with another employer, please contact your Manpower Professional office AT LEAST ONE WEEK BEFORE you wish to finish the assignment.

Paid Holiday

Attached is a holiday request form. It is important that any holiday you apply for is authorised. Please ensure that any holiday request is acknowledged. When applying for holiday, you must give twice as much notice as you intend to take holiday (i.e. 4 days notice would be required to take 2 days holiday).

PAYE

You must return with your first timesheet either a P45 (from your previous employer) OR a P46 (where no P45 is available) OR a P38 (only if you are a student working during holidays).

PAYE (Pay As You Earn is when you work for us and not through a Limited Company), tax and National Insurance will be deducted from your wages by the Manpower Professional payroll department. All deductions will be shown on your wages slip.

A P46 is needed if you are working within the UK for the first time. In addition a National Insurance number will be required. A P46 form can be obtained from your Manpower Professional consultant, and a National Insurance number via the Department of Work and Pensions.

Queries or problems

Should you have any queries or problems regarding any aspect of the assignment please contact your consultant. However, please refer to the information below first.

Timesheets

Please ensure that ALL information on the timesheet (including the week ending date) is completed and is correct.

At the end of each week you must have your timesheet (provided by your consultant) signed by an authorised signatory and ensure that signed copy is returned to Manpower Professional using the pre-paid envelope we will supply you with by 10 AM EACH MONDAY or earlier as agreed with your consultant. Payment cannot be made to you if this deadline is missed. If you anticipate any problems in submitting by the deadline, please contact your consultant as soon as possible.

If you are invoicing us via a limited company please send with your first timesheet: a copy of the Certificate of Incorporation, a copy of the VAT registration certificate (if applicable) and with every timesheet submitted, a company invoice detailing the week ending date, hours worked, and amount to be paid.
