Payroll help

[amalee]

I'm still new to payroll and working with Sage as well although most of it is pretty straightforward. But I have a question that I need to know if this is right.

We employ cleaners who get paid fortnightly and when they take holiday they don't get paid as their holiday pay is included in their fortnightly pay. Anyway there is a unique situation which I don't want to go into huge amount of detail but boss wants to change this for two of our employees.

In order to deal with this, my thinking is they get paid their usual rate on a fortnightly basis and when they take their holiday they get paid their holiday rates. Is this right?

[ummmm]

I can't think of any other way to do it.

When you do do the pay as it is now do they wage slips display holiday pay?

[thugulike]

Why is their holiday rate different to their normal rate?

[ummmm]

I don't think she means that Thug. I think she means how it's displayed on the wage slip.

[thugulike]

Umm. I don't see why the payslip needs to record holiday pay separately. Surely as long as a record is kept of the holiday taken everything should stay the same?

[amalee]

Their holiday pay is shown separately on the wage slip.
