Field Description - Sick Time Accrual Amount Per Period

The Sick Time Accrual Amount Per Period is the amount of sick time expressed in hours that accrues for the employee during each pay period.  To determine the accrual factor or the amount of time per period, take the total number of hours to accrue in a year and divide by the number of pay periods in a year.  For example, if an employee received 100 hours a year and there are 26 pay periods in the year, then divide 100 by 26 to calculate the sick accrual factor.

Notes:

• If you maintain a sick time accrual amount, the system will automatically accrue sick time for the employee.  or, you can manually maintain the Sick Time Accrued Amount to track employee sick time.

• This field pertains to employees assigned an Other Pay Code with an Other Pay Type of 2 - Sick.

• You can maintain and view this field during Employee Totals Master Maintenance in the Vacation / Sick Detail Area.
