Annual Leave for a full month

Our employees get paid an equal monthly salary based on 164.667 hours per month (38 hours per week/7.6 hours per day). The payroll period is the 1st of the month till the last day of the month, for example 1 July 2026 to 31 July 2026.  If the employee has an annual salary of $60,000, their payroll is a gross amount of $5,000 per month every month.

 

One of our employees has taken annual leave for the entire month of July 2026 (1 July 2026 to 31 July 2026).  This is equivalent to 23 days annual leave x 7.6hours = 174.80 hours of annual leave.

 

What is the correct way to reflect the annual leave hours when processing the July 2026 payroll, as it is 10.133 hours more than the hours per normal monthly payroll (164.667)? 

 

Thank you.

    Hi KathrynF1,

     

    That’s a really good question, especially with salaried hours and full-month leave mixing together. For something this specific, it’s best to check with your accountant so they can confirm the correct treatment for the leave hours and salary amount based on your payroll setup and obligations. That way you can be confident it’s being handled correctly and staying compliant.

     

    Cheers,
