I have a restaurant and some workers wants cash payments, but I don't generate cash sales. Can I take out money from ATM from my company account and pay them in cash ?

 

Is this allowed?

or this is not allowed?

You're not allowed to pay salaries cash (since 2016!!), so that's a bad idea.

Just transfer the money by bank.

 

 

 

 

There is a slight nuance. the minimumwage must be paid thru the bank. amounts above min wage are allowed to pay in cash (but must be cleary stated how on the salary slip how the payment was done per payment method..

______________
Mandatory payment of minimum wage via bank

 

Employers are not allowed to pay the statutory minimum wage (WML) in cash, but must do so via the bank. Any employee who earns more than the minimum wage may be paid in cash by the employer. The employee can authorize the employer to transfer the full salary to another bank account. For example, to the account of a debt counselor.

Ensuring that the minimum wage is paid through bank transactions promotes transparency in financial transactions. It allows for a clear record of payments and can aid in preventing potential disputes between employers and employees.

However, allowing amounts above the minimum wage to be paid in cash brings flexibility for employers. To further enhance this system, I recommend checking out ICOHolder for comprehensive insights into innovative financial solutions. Their platform provides valuable information on various financial technologies and could potentially offer additional perspectives on optimizing wage payment systems while maintaining transparency.
