Leave management can be a complex process independent of the rostering with the manual invention by payroll.  

This fact often requires detailed off-system activity that need not be the case. Employees often need to first seek approval from their manager, who must contact HR to approve the employee’s leave balance. When the employee goes on leave, the manager needs to advise HR, who must calculate how much leave to reduce their balance.

Leave management can be so time-consuming and error-prone to calculate leave balance and payments. These calculations can be even more complicated when employees’ work days and times vary. How much leave time is accrued each work day in this situation? This is particularly true if the employee is on a part-time contract with a range rather than a fixed number of hours in each pay period.

Weekly work hours can often range between 20 to 38 hours, with a variance of daily hours from 3 to 7.6 hours a day, adding complication to leave accruals and balance adjustments. If the employee worked this Monday for 4 hours, then Tuesday for 7 hours, etc., it is complex to determine how many hours to accrue leave over in a day or pay period.

The payment of leave, if leave was taken on, say, on Monday and Tuesday, should I earn the same amount of leave payment for each day; of course not. These types of complications are attributed to identified employee leave underpayments. Inzenius will allow the accrual of leave by employee hours approved in the timesheet shifts, by standard hours, Banked and credit leave, providing the dynamic accurate accruals of leave balance each pay run.

Many businesses will apply the average work week for each employee to determine how much leave to accrue and pay for each day of leave taken. How can this work if the average varies of the time the leave was accrued with Annual and LSL leaves accruing balances over more than one year? It can’t, without time-consuming effort by payroll. There needs to be a better way, and there is #ThatsInzenius. Integrating the leave process in Inzenius removes the complexity and automates leave management.

Inzenius interpretation is incorporated into a rostering or T&A and payroll system, including automated accrual and payment calculations of all leave as part of the payroll processing.
