School Based Apprentice - Off Job Training 25% of ordinary hours worked

Hi there,

Can you advise how I set up the above as required by Fairwork Award.

Apparently we have to pay our school based apprentice (Grade 10) 25% of Off Job Training e.g  he will work 2 days  per week = 15 hours then we have to pay 25% = 3.75 hrs

How do I set this up in my payroll?

Thanks for this.

Regards

Gill

    Hi, Tasqua

     

    Thanks for your post and my apologies for the late response.

     

    If an employee will need to have 25% off-the-job training, you will need to create a wage category for it. When creating the wage category, kindly make sure to select the correct pay rate so that the wage will be calculated correctly. For more information regarding this, you may check out the Help Article: Wages.

     

    Please let us know if you require any further assistance with this.

     

    Best regards,

    Earl
