Novopay (School payroll) overpayments
PPTA Te Wehengarua advice to teachers who have been asked to repay Novopay overpayments
Are you being asked to repay overpayments?
PPTA field officers advise you to contact them if you are in any doubt about having to repay an alleged overpayment.
Before making any payment the accuracy of the alleged overpayment sum must be checked.
You should:
- Request a comprehensive breakdown of where the alleged overpayment has occurred.
- Contact your Field Officer
They also advise that if you've agreed to repay a genuine payroll debt then you have every right to negotiate with the unit the amount of each repayment.
