Can I download this template as Word or PDF?

Yes. When you have filled in the form, save it as a Word document to keep editing, or as a PDF to send or print. It is free and needs no account.

Is what I type sent anywhere?

No. What you type stays in your browser while you fill in the document. It only goes to nerix if you choose to open the template in the chat.

What should I check before I use this template?

This template adds up the figures you enter. It does not work out tax or social contributions, so take those from your payroll records. Many countries set what a payslip must show and how long to keep it, so check the rules where the employee works. A payslip holds personal data: send it only to the employee.

Are these HR templates free?

Most are. Fill in and download them for free as Word or PDF, with no account. A few longer documents are premium: free to fill in, paid once to download, and marked with their price.

Do the HR templates follow my country's employment law?

They assume no country's law. Employment rules differ a lot, so each template says where to check local requirements before you use it.

Can a small team use them too?

Yes. They work for a team of two or a company of two thousand, and you can cut any section you do not need in the Word version.
