Sick Leave - Standard Unit Accrual Method

Payroll | Leave Setup | Sick Leave Tables | Values tab

Summary

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

Example

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

Entitlement:

40 hours sick leave (5 days) after the first six months' service.

40 hours sick leave (5 days) every 12 months.

Pay period:

Weekly

Full-time hours:

40

 

Accrue entitlement weekly = "Yes"

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

Sick Leave Table - 6 months

Setup Tab

 

or months:

6

Next table on cycle end:

Twelve-month table for 40 hours

Values Tab

 

Type of unit:

Hours

Accrual method:

Std

Accrue entitlement weekly:

Yes

Stand down period (months):

6.00

Entitlement (units):

40.0000

Maximum units accrued per week:

0.0000
(Not required for standard unit accrual method)

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

  1. Calculate the period proportion:

    Days in this pay period

    /

    Days in this AL cycle

    =

    Period proportion

    7

    182

    0.0385

    Calculate the pay period accrual:

    Period proportion

    *

    Entitlement (units)

    =

    Pay period accrual

    0.0385

    40

    1.54

    Maximum units accrued per week = 0.0000 so it is not used.

  2. Calculate the current Total accrued:

    Pay period accrual

    +

    Total accrued value at previous pay

    =

    Current Total accrued

    1.54

    30 (for example)

    31.54

    Accrue entitlement weekly:

    Stand down period (months):

    Entitlement (units):

    40.0000

    Maximum units accrued per week:

    0.0000
    (Not required for standard unit accrual method)

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

    Calculate the pay period accrual:

    *

    Entitlement (units)

    =

    Pay period accrual

    0.0192

    40

    0.768

    Maximum units accrued per week = 0.0000 so it is not used.

  4. Calculate the current Total accrued:

    Pay period accrual

    +

    Total accrued value at previous pay

    =

    Current Total accrued

    0.768

    30 (for example)

    30.768

     

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

Setup Tab

 

or months:

6

Next table on cycle end:

Twelve-month table for 40 hours

Values Tab

 

Type of unit:

Hours

Accrual method:

Std

Accrue entitlement weekly:

No

Stand down period (months):

6.00

Entitlement (units):

0.0000

Maximum units accrued per week:

0.0000
(Not required for standard unit accrual method)

Entitlement (units) 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 allocates the employee the number of units specified in the new table (40).

When this table rolls over, PayGlobal uses the following values to calculate the employee's Total accrued:

Pay period accrual

+

Total accrued value at previous pay

=

Current Total accrued

40

0

40

Sick Leave Table - 12 months

Setup Tab

 

or months:

Next table on cycle end:

Values Tab

 

Type of unit:

Accrual method:

Std

Accrue entitlement weekly:

No

Stand down period (months):

6.00

Entitlement (units):

40

Maximum units accrued per week:

0.7692
(40 hours / 52 pay periods)

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

When this table rolls over, PayGlobal uses the following values to calculate the employee's Total accrued:

Pay period accrual

+

Total accrued value at previous pay

=

Current Total accrued
