Handling waitress unclaimed pay from three years ago
Each week our boss gives us payslips with our hours worked and we can cash them right at the place of work. Pretty simple. You get a receipt for your hours worked for the week and a slip to turn into the cash register for payment. If a worker needs a regular "paycheck" instead of cash, that is also arranged. Or if they want their money auto-deposited, that is another option available.
So, we have this one waitress that has worked there for 7 years. She comes in the other day with some of these "payslips" that are almost three years old. She said she found them in an old purse in her closet. She never cashed them in. Now she wants me to bring them into the office to see if they are any good.
How is this situation handled? The amount of all the slips is almost $300.00.

I do not DO the payroll. I hand out the payslips each week and the employee signs that they have received their pay and they may cash it right there.

I don't understand why there's any question? If this employee is a good employee (and after working there for 7 years, she must be), unless you find her to be particularly untrustworthy, just pay her - if she's working full time, $300 must be less than 1% of her annual pay, so even if she's scamming you (on purpose or by accident), it's not a lot of money.

@Johnny, less than 1%? Aside from the basic sanity check that $30.000 a year for a close-to-minimum-wage job would only make sense somewhere with extremely high living costs, the question says that each payslip corresponds to a week (which would be about 2% of annual pay) and there's more than one (so it corresponds to at least 4%, probably more).

Talk to the owner or the manager. You don't want to be responsible for paying money for a payslip that already has been paid.
As you have noted this is highly unusual for somebody to hold onto these payslips. While it looks like they were never paid there might be some other story. Maybe they were lost and the restaurant replaced them, and they will no longer honor the original ones.
Don't pay any money until somebody with additional authority has approved them and takes responsibility for the situation.

If the payslips are genuine, and if you're confident there is no scam going on, then you should pay. To be safe, you should check with your manager first.

@ohyeah I agree that the individual asking the question shouldn't just pay up on the strength of their own "confidence", but it's absolutely worth remembering that if the story is correct then this is money that the employee is owed in exchange for work already done, so in that respect it absolutely should be paid up when it is verified.

You (or whoever is responsible for that) look into the old books to see if the payslips were paid out. There should also be a folder with old payslips were the ones in question should be missing.
After that, the person in charge of cashing them in can safely do so.
If there is no such thing, you (r manager) should cash in the slips as the price for an important lesson, start doing normal bookkeeping and be happy the business has survived for so long. No business should be giving out thousands of thousands of dollars over years to employees without any prove where that money went or even how much money.

what role do you have in the company in regards to payroll, and bookkeeping ?

I do not DO the payroll. I hand out the payslips each week and the employee signs that they have received their pay and they may cash it right there.

Do the payslips have an expiry date?

I don't understand why there's any question? If this employee is a good employee (and after working there for 7 years, she must be), unless you find her to be particularly untrustworthy, just pay her - if she's working full time, $300 must be less than 1% of her annual pay, so even if she's scamming you (on purpose or by accident), it's not a lot of money.

@Johnny, less than 1%? Aside from the basic sanity check that $30.000 a year for a close-to-minimum-wage job would only make sense somewhere with extremely high living costs, the question says that each payslip corresponds to a week (which would be about 2% of annual pay) and there's more than one (so it corresponds to at least 4%, probably more).
