Payment of wages otherwise than in cash in cases of absence. 4.(1) The provisions of this section shall have effect where, at the time when an employed person's wages fall to be paid, he is absent from the proper or usual place for the payment thereof, or for the payment of so much thereof as is not covered by a request and agreement under section 1, and no notice excluding him from the operation of this section is in force at that time. (2) If no part of those wages is covered by a request and agreement under section 1, and either (a)the employed person has duties in connection with his employment which require him to be absent as mentioned in subsection (1), and the employer has reasonable grounds for believing that he is absent in order to carry out those duties, or (b)the employer has reasonable grounds for believing that the employed person's absence is on account of his being ill or having sustained a personal injury, (3) If part of the wages in question is covered by a request and agreement under section 1, and the conditions mentioned in paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) of subsection (2) are fulfilled, nothing in the specified enactments shall operate so as to render unlawful or invalid any payment of any part of those wages not covered by such a request and agreement, if it is paid by postal order or money order.... (4) If an employed person, by notice in writing given to his employer, declares that he does not wish to have any of his wages paid to him by postal order or money order, that notice (a)shall remain in force until cancelled by the employed person by a further notice in writing given to his employer, and (b)while it remains in force, shall have effect for the purpose of subsection (1) as a notice excluding him from the operation of this section. (5) For the purposes of this section wages, or part of wages, shall be taken to be covered by a request and agreement under section 1 if a request and agreement, as mentioned in that section, are for the time being in force in respect of those wages or that part thereof, as the case may be.
