Frequently Asked Questions

I am unable to fill out my TD1 because the Employee Tab is not available in LORIS?

The Employee Tab will not become available in Loris until the Payroll Department has received your information and has set you up as an employee. There may be a delay between when you have signed your contract and when they have set you up. You should receive an email to update your TD1 once they have set you up.

What should I do if there are errors when entering my banking information on LORIS?
