According to § 108 GewO, employers are obliged to provide their employees with a payslip in text form. Digital pay slips are permissible if the employee has given his or her consent (LAG Hamm, judgement of 23.09.2021, ref.: 2 Sa 179/21).

Advantages of digital payroll:

• Optimisation of internal processes: Time savings through automated processes and digital archiving.
• Increased efficiency: Reduced administrative workload and costs.
• Flexible access: Employees can view their pay slips online at any time.
• Sustainability: Reduce paper consumption and environmental impact.

Content requirements:

The digital payslip must contain the same information as the traditional paper form, in accordance with Section 1 of the Salary Certification Ordinance:

• Employer details: name, address
• Employee details: Name, address, date of birth, tax class, tax number
• Employment details: Start and, if applicable, end of employment, payroll period
• Wage composition: gross wage/salary, benefits in kind, capital formation benefits, company pension scheme, tax allowances, church tax, social security contributions, personal deductions, expense allowances, amount paid out.

The digital payslip must be in PDF format or another common format that can be easily opened and read by the employee. In addition, the electronic transmission of the payslip should take place via a secure channel in order to guarantee the confidentiality of the data.

In summary, digital payroll offers many benefits to employers and employees. It is legally permissible and fulfils all the requirements for text form. For increased efficiency, flexible access and sustainability, companies should consider moving to digital processes. Contact us if you need further assistance.
