Long Service Leave Accrued

Good afternoon

 

I am in NSW. I need to work out how many hours of long service an employee is owed. Is the following correct

 

Total gross pay (start of employment until 22/7/26 ) x 0.01667% = TOTAL HOURS

 

Thank you

    Hi Marist5002,

     

    That’s a good question, especially with long service leave rules being a bit different depending on the setup and state.

    For the actual calculation, it’s really best to check with your accountant first so you can be sure the formula you’re using is the right one for your NSW employee and stays nice and compliant. Once they’ve confirmed the correct calculation, you can use this MYOB guide to help with setting up long service leave in AccountRight: Long service leave.

     

    Cheers,

    Doreen
