The record of wages paid, maintained in the form the applicable legislation prescribes and produced on demand. Like the muster roll, it is tested on a specific person and date rather than on its totals.
The wage register is produced from each month's payroll run and kept for the period the applicable law requires. HR rarely looks at it until an inspector or an auditor asks for it, at which point it has to show each worker's rate, days worked, overtime, deductions and net pay for the month in question.
In practice the risk is that the register is generated as a single report long after the event. If the attendance file or a deduction was corrected after salary was paid, the register produced later no longer matches what the worker actually received. Freeze each month's register when payroll is closed.
Contractors' workers deserve a separate check. The principal employer may be expected to ensure their wages are paid and recorded, so ask contractors for their wage registers along with their monthly invoice, and check a few names against your own attendance records.
