Hospitality payroll is complex. Getting it wrong is expensive.

The Hospitality Industry (General) Award has dozens of classification levels, penalty rates, casual loading rules, overtime provisions and annualised salary requirements. Most generic payroll services do not understand it. Most generic software does not apply it correctly without careful setup.

Admyn manages end-to-end payroll for hospitality venues. We process your pay runs, apply the right award rates, calculate penalty and overtime correctly, manage super, lodge STP and keep your payroll records clean and compliant.

From 1 July 2026, Payday Super changes the way super is paid — from quarterly to every pay run. We have our venues ready. If yours is not, we can help.

What we do

  • Award Rate Management

    We set up and maintain the correct award rates for your venue under the Hospitality Industry (General) Award (HIGA) or the Restaurant Industry Award, depending on your coverage.

    Every classification level is correctly configured — full-time, part-time and casual — including casual loading, Saturday, Sunday, public holiday, evening and early morning penalty rates. When the Fair Work Commission hands down its Annual Wage Review each July, we update your rates before the first pay run.

  • End-to-End Pay Run Processing

    We process your weekly or fortnightly pay runs accurately and on time. Every shift, every employee, every entitlement.

    We work from your rostering system, timesheet data or DTS reports — whichever your venue uses. Gross wages, PAYG withholding, superannuation and leave are all calculated and posted correctly every cycle.

  • Single Touch Payroll and STP Finalisation

    Every pay run is reported to the ATO through Single Touch Payroll. We manage your STP lodgements throughout the year and handle the annual finalisation declaration so your employees can access their income statements through myGov on time.

    If your STP reporting has gaps or errors from prior periods, we can identify and correct them before they become a problem.

  • Superannuation and Payday Super

    From 1 July 2026, super must be paid within seven days of every pay run under the new Payday Super legislation. We manage super processing through a SuperStream-compliant clearing house so contributions are paid on time, every cycle.

    We also handle the quarterly super guarantee for venues not yet on Payday Super, and manage super on termination payments, bonuses and back-pay.

  • Bonus and Incentive Management

    Want to recruit and retain the best managers? We help design bonus and incentive structures for your management team, tailored to your venue and the role.

    We set up KPIs in your bookkeeping package and link them to your payroll for transparent tracking, achievable targets and straightforward payments. Tips management is included too.

  • New System Implementation and Migration

    Moving to a new payroll platform or rostering system? We manage the onboarding, configuration and cutover process so nothing is lost in the transition.

    Not sure which system is right for your venue? We can walk you through the leading platforms and help you make the right choice before you commit.

Platforms we work with

We work with the leading payroll and rostering platforms used in Australian hospitality:

Payroll: Xero Payroll, KeyPay (Employment Hero), MYOB Rostering and time and attendance: Deputy, Tanda, FoundU, Humanforce Award interpretation: we configure awards manually where auto-interpretation does not apply correctly

If we do not work with your current platform, we will tell you honestly whether it is the right tool for your venue.

FAQs

  • Most pubs, clubs, hotels, taverns, bars and accommodation venues are covered by the Hospitality Industry (General) Award (MA000009). Some restaurants and cafes fall under the Restaurant Industry Award (MA000003) instead. Mixed-format venues should confirm coverage with us or use the Fair Work Ombudsman's Pay and Conditions Tool (PACT). We confirm the right award before setting up your payroll.

  • Yes. From 1 July 2026, super must be paid within seven days of every pay run rather than quarterly. This is a significant operational change for hospitality venues with large casual workforces. If your payroll setup is not ready for Payday Super, we can get you there before the deadline.

  • Yes. Underpayments, incorrect award classifications, missing super and STP errors are all fixable. We assess the situation, identify the gaps and work through a correction process that meets Fair Work and ATO requirements.

  • Yes. If you have non-managerial staff on annualised salary arrangements under the HIGA, Fair Work requires an annual reconciliation comparing the salary paid against what the employee would have earned at hourly award rates. We complete this reconciliation and identify any shortfalls that need to be paid.

  • Yes. We manage payroll for single venues and multi-venue groups. Each venue can have its own award configuration, cost centre and reporting structure while being managed through one consolidated payroll process.

  • Pricing depends on the number of employees, pay frequency and complexity of your award setup. We offer fixed, transparent pricing with no lock-in contracts. Start with a free payroll review and we will give you a clear quote.
