salaried staff terminations - pro-rata final pay period to avoid overpayment
A
Anja Boehm
Currently, when a salaried employee has an employment end date set and a termination payment has to be processed, the system generates a pay slip for:
a) their full salary if the team member has no timesheet
e.g. If Team member A finishes after 5 days of work, Tanda will pay the full period, rather than only 5 days pro-rata, regardless of the set employment end date.
b) pays the hours worked from their timesheet (which might or might not match the salaried hours per day) for a pay period instead of calculating a pro-rata amount for the actual days worked during that period
e.g. If Team member has a timesheet and has clocked 20 hours of work across 5 days, Tanda will pay 20 hours worked from the timesheet, rather than 5 days pro-rata. This might cause the team member to be overpaid or underpaid.
We would like Tanda to pay for the days employed or worked, as indicated by the employment end date and rostered days during that period.
Currently we are checking every termination and adjusting manually based on the end date and roster of how many days of salary the employee is entitled to. However, with an employee base of approx.1300 employees and a constant flow of terminations across 2 countries and several employment entities, this presents a high risk of overpayment and financial impact.
