Summary

These examples show how PayGlobal accrues employee sick leave when the Sick Leave | Values tab | Accrual method = "Prop" and the Accrue entitlement weekly field is either "Yes" or "No".

Important: When you use the proportional unit accrual method, the Entitlement (weeks) and Maximum units accrued per week fields must contain data. If they are blank, then the Total accrued will be zero when the table rolls over.

Example

You need to set up sick leave tables for full-time employees based on the following values:

Accrue entitlement weekly = "Yes"

When Accrue entitlement weekly = "Yes", Total accrued is calculated each pay period.

Sick Leave Table - 6 months

The Accrual rate per pay period value is the proportional hourly accrual rate.

• At the end of the six-month sick leave cycle, this table rolls on to the twelve-month table.

Each week, PayGlobal uses these six-month table values in the proportional unit accrual method calculation.

1. Calculate the current pay period accrual:

   Accrual rate per pay period	*	Qualifying units in current pay	=	Current pay period accrual
   0.0385		37 (for example)		1.4245

   Calculate the maximum units accrued per pay period:

   Maximum units accrued per week	*	Pay period factor	=	Maximum units accrued per pay period
   1.5385		1		1.5385

   Compare the following values:

   Current pay period accrual:	1.4245
   Maximum units accrued per period:	1.5385

   Use the lesser of these two values in Step 4.

2. Calculate the current Total accrued:

Sick Leave Table - 12 months

The Accrual rate per pay period value is the proportional hourly accrual rate.

• Next table on cycle end is blank, so this table will roll on to itself after each twelve-month sick leave cycle.

Each week, PayGlobal uses these 12-month table values in the proportional unit accrual method calculation.

1. Calculate the current pay period accrual:

   Accrual rate per pay period	*	Qualifying units in current pay	=	Current pay period accrual
   0.0192		37 (for example)		0.7104

   Calculate the maximum units accrued per pay period:

   Maximum units accrued per week	*	Pay period factor	=	Maximum units accrued per pay period
   0.7692		1		0.7692

   Compare the following values:

   Current pay period accrual:	0.7104
   Maximum units accrued per period:	0.7692

   Use the lesser of these two values in Step 4.

2. Calculate the current Total accrued:

   Current pay period accrual	+	Total accrued value at previous pay	=	Current Total accrued
   0.7104		30 (for example)		30.7104

    

Accrue entitlement weekly = "No"

When the Accrue entitlement weekly = "No", Total accrued is calculated at the beginning of the new sick leave cycle and it uses the accrual rate of the new table.

Sick Leave Table - 6 months

The Maximum units accrued per week value for the six-month table is zero because entitlement is calculated at the beginning of the next sick leave table.

• When the six-month table rolls on to the first twelve-month table, PayGlobal applies the Accrual rate per pay period specified in the new table.

When the six-month table rolls over, PayGlobal uses the values in the next table.

Sick Leave Table - 12 months - 26-week accrual rate

The Accrual rate per pay period value is the proportional hourly accrual rate.

• At the end of the six-month sick leave cycle, this table rolls on to the second twelve-month table, PayGlobal applies the Accrual rate per pay period specified in the new table.

When the 12 months - 26-week accrual rate table rolls over, PayGlobal uses the following values to calculate the employee's Total accrued:

1. Calculate the current pay period accrual:

   Accrual rate per pay period in second twelve-month table	*	Qualifying units in current pay (26 weeks x 37 hours)	=	Current pay period accrual
   0.0385		962		37.037

   Calculate the maximum units accrued per pay period:

   Maximum units accrued per week in second twelve-month table	*	Entitlement weeks	=	Maximum units accrued per pay period
   40.00		1		40.00

   Compare the following values:

   Current pay period accrual:	37.037
   Maximum units accrued per period:	40.00

   Use the lesser of these two values in Step 4.

2. Calculate the current Total accrued:

   Current pay period accrual	+	Total accrued value at previous pay	=	Current Total accrued
   37.037		0		37.037

   Sick Leave Table - 12 months - 52-week accrual rate

   Setup Tab
   or months:	12
   Next table on cycle end:	(Blank)
   Values Tab
   Type of unit:	Hours
   Accrual method:	Prop
   Accrual rate per pay period:	0.0192
   Accrue entitlement weekly:	No
   Stand down period (months):	0.00
   Entitlement (weeks):	1.00
   Maximum units accrued per week:	40.00 (Maximum total accrual)

   The Accrual rate per pay period value is the proportional hourly accrual rate.

• Next table on cycle end is blank, so this table will roll on to itself after each twelve-month sick leave cycle.

When the 12 months - 52-week accrual rate table rolls over, PayGlobal uses the following values to calculate the employee's Total accrued:

1. Calculate the current pay period accrual:

   Accrual rate per pay period in second twelve-month table	*	Qualifying units in current pay (52 weeks x 37 hours)	=	Current pay period accrual
   0.0192		1924		36.9408

   Calculate the maximum units accrued per pay period:

   Maximum units accrued per week in second twelve-month table	*	Entitlement weeks	=	Maximum units accrued per pay period
   40.00		1		40.00

   Compare the following values:

   Current pay period accrual:	36.9408
   Maximum units accrued per period:	40.00

   Use the lesser of these two values in Step 4.

2. Calculate the current Total accrued:

   Current pay period accrual	+	Total accrued value at previous pay	=	Current Total accrued
   36.9408		0		36.9408
