STP2
Sorry to bring this up again; Has anyone found a way to deal with STP2 & All-purpose allowances (Electrical, electronic & communications contracting award 2020) Our electricians get paid 3 all-pu...
Forum Discussion
Sorry, I may not have been clear enough. I have all my allowances set up and record separately to the ATO but what happens when overtime is worked.
As an example, An electrician earns $50/hr (above award payment which absorbs the all-purpose allowances)
STP2 is split ($1900 gross for 38hrs)
Base wage $47.5145/hr $1805.55
Electricians licence allowance $ 35.82
Industry allowance $ 36.82
Tool allowance $ 21.81
$1900.00
This is how I would report a standard 38hr week
When overtime is worked it needs to be calculated using $50/hr not $47.5145/hr
Hi, Annie31
Thanks for your response.
In this case, we highly recommend creating a separate payroll category for the overtime and then entering the correct amount. You may check the Help Article: Overtime for further information on how to create an overtime payroll category.
Should you need further assistance, don't hesitate to reach out to us.
Best regards,
Doreen
Thanks Doreen - Will i have to do one for each employee as the hourly rate varies throughout workforce??
