SICK LEAVE ACCRUALS

Hi Team

 

An employee is questioning his leave accrual, so I've been looking into it today. We have our leave accruals set the same since I have started back in 2019 for the company I work, set at 2.923%. I've just printed his report for the last 5 years and it changed from around 2023 to 2.221 for a 76hr fortnight. Only difference between this colleague and my own is that he is on Hourly rate and I'm on Salary. I have checked my own and it also changed in 2023. We have 23 employees and i don't want to have to run reports for everyone of them and check their accrual manually. What has happened??

 

your soonest feedback greatly appreciate!!

    Hi q_man_snowflake,

     

    Thanks for sharing what you’ve noticed. I can see why this would be confusing, and checking every employee’s report individually isn’t ideal.

     

    The most likely cause is a change to the leave pay item setup. Rather than reviewing each employee, I’d recommend checking the shared leave pay item’s calculation basis, any exemptions that have been added, and the standard hours. If you’d like some one-on-one help, our team can walk you through this via live chat through our virtual assistant MOCA or by phone.

     

    Cheers,

    Princess

    thank you for your feedback. I've checked these setups and nothing looks out of the ordinary. They've been assigned as per initial set up. I've pulled all my notes from 25/5/23 and looks like i discussed this already with Celia_B. for reference these have been assigned as follows:

     

    Payroll Category

    Sick Pay - Hourly - Gross Payments

    Holiday Pay - Hourly - Gross Payments

     

    Entitlements for both holiday and sick

    Part-time - percentage

    Salary - percentage

    Accural - percentage

     

    Entitlements Information for both holiday and sick

    Sick equals - 2.923% - Gross Hours

    Holiday equals - 7.6923% - Gross Hours

     

    on a 76hr fortnight - for both salary and hourly wages

    holiday accrual is at a rate of 5.846

    sick accrual us at a rate if 2.221

     

    prior to this STP update it was 5.846 and 2.923

     

    as far as discussing over the phone, i'm not in a private location in the office but do have TeamViewer.

    thanks and look forward to any further feedback.
