Build linked records, not a decorative folder

For one selected period, connect worker identity, attendance, overtime, wage calculation and actual payment. Keep agency-worker responsibilities and relevant supplier records traceable. If payroll and attendance use different identifiers, document the reconciliation instead of editing originals to make totals match. A signed code of conduct cannot substitute for an unexplained wage discrepancy.

Consistency between hours, wages and interviews

Link working-time records, overtime calculations, wages, payments and recruitment evidence to the same reporting period. File example: the shift sheet matches payroll, but worker interviews describe unrecorded work. Investigate the source and correct records and practice together. Renaming a procedure or coaching interview answers cannot resolve the discrepancy; the evidence should explain actual conditions rather than merely appear internally tidy.

Match the customer to the actual site

Compare legal name, facility address, production activities, shifts and workforce arrangements with the platform record. Scope example: a buyer requests the main factory’s report, while part of the order is produced in another workshop. Clarify the assessed site and outsourced work with the RSP holder. A report for one address cannot automatically represent another facility or company in the group.
