First Aid & Laundry Allowances

Hello,

I am trying to set up a first aid allowance at $16.03 pw and a laundry allowance of $3.55 pw as per the award. The employee is paid on a fortnightly basis.

In the payroll category list, I only get a choice of hourly rate or salary, can you please tell me how to set this up in the wages information pay rate section? 

We are using MYOB Account right.

 

Thank you

  • Hi Valy,

     

    Thanks so much for adding that screenshot! You’re definitely on the right track by checking out the wage category settings. The pay basis options (hourly or salary) are set up to match the most common ways to calculate someone's pay. The best choice for your first aid and laundry allowances depends on how you want these to be included in your employee’s pay slip, such as adding them each pay run or setting a fixed amount. To guide you through this, you can check out this link that outlines how each option works, and what to choose when it comes to pay rates. 

     

    Cheers,

    Princess
