Summary |
The current New Zealand Holidays Act (2003, Number 129) came into effect on 01 April 2004. Employers must ensure their payroll set-up is compliant with the current Act. To do this you must identify the total number of employment agreement/contract variations your organisation has. Processes should be set-up to regularly review your set-up with your current employment agreements/contracts to ensure your PayGlobal set-up will continue to help you be compliant. For Annual Leave and F.B.A.P.S PayGlobal caters for:
For Annual Leave in Weeks, PayGlobal caters for:
The current AL in Weeks functionality has only been designed to suit customers with employees that have fixed/static work patterns as there's a heavy reliance on profiled hours AND also only suits those who only get the stock-standard 4 weeks AL per year - no using our Extra Week or our Services tabs. Basically it's not designed or suitable yet for customers that use the T&A or Rostering Modules.... only Payroll module users. |
Legacy systems |
If your company has recently changed from a non-PayGlobal software system to PayGlobal you need to bring in at least 12 months historical data. If you do not do this you will be unable to accurately calculate an employee's Average Earnings (52 week rule). |
