Pay Slip or Time and Wages Record

Populated employee pay slips and payroll wage records: the Fair Work pay slip (employer name and ABN, employee name, pay period, date of payment, gross and net amounts, deductions, superannuation contributions, hourly rate or annual salary, loadings and allowances - Fair Work Regulations 2009 regs 3.45-3.46) and the Queensland time and wages record kept by state and local government and other state-system employers (Industrial Relations Act 2016 (Qld) ss 339-340).

Type: regex
Engine: boost_regex
Confidence: medium
Confidence justification: Medium: a pay slip is a dense labelled form, and the enforce tiers need dollar values against gross/net, earnings and deduction labels, which guidance, pay guides and blank forms do not carry. Payroll journals, costing spreadsheets and bank remittance advices can carry the same labels and amounts and may reach 75 when a pay slip phrase is nearby. 85/75 are heuristic evidence tiers, not measured accuracy; tests are synthetic records laid out like FW and Qld wage records.

Known false positives

Fair Work Ombudsman and OIR guidance on pay slip and time and wages record content. Mitigation: Guidance lists the field names without dollar values; enforce tiers need populated amounts. Pay-slip guidance wording is also excluded.
Award and enterprise agreement pay-rate tables and pay guides. Mitigation: Rate tables have hourly rates but no gross/net amount field, so they stay below 75; pay guide wording is excluded.
Payroll software marketing and blank pay slip forms. Mitigation: No dollar values against gross/net labels; marketing and template wording is excluded.
Payroll journals, cost-centre reports and remittance advices that repeat gross/net labels with amounts near the word payroll record or pay advice. Mitigation: These are usually still personal pay data; 85 additionally requires an employee identity field plus separate earnings and deduction lines.
