The Payroll Division is the payroll service for teaching and non-teaching staff in primary, voluntary secondary and community and comprehensive schools. Retired personnel are also paid through this service.
Due to the Government Decisions surrounding Covid-19 in relation to education settings, the Department of Education advised staff, including the payroll division, to work remotely.
The department continues to pay salaries and pensions to school staff as normal on a fortnightly basis.
