What should I do about a worker who suddenly left on her monthly payday, and I don't recall whether I had paid her in advance, while I am confused about the nature of the salary payment—is it in advance or in arrears?
If you doubt whether you paid the worker's wage, the default assumption is that she did not receive it, and you must pay it to clear your conscience with certainty. You can review your accounts to verify. If you do not reach certainty and she herself is not certain, then the default is that the wage remains your responsibility, and you must pay it.
