Calculating Long Service Leave (LSL) can be complicated, especially for employees whose Ordinary Times Earnings (OTE) times can be different for each pay period over the seven years plus the accrual period(s).

Many recent cases have highlighted that even the most sophisticated employee pay departments have been found to have failed to pay LSL as required under the awards and legislation.  It can be a criminal charge if you knowingly underpay employees.

The payroll department often needs to identify the employee’s OTE for each range of pay periods worked time in weeks, and then apply the average to the leave accrual to accurately calculate the amount paid for the weeks of LSL. This process is time-consuming, and manual calculations are required.

Inzenius LSL calulations

The Inzenius solution for any variable-time worked leave accrual, including the LSL balance adjustment, is to accrue at each pay run based on the OTE minutes of time worked during the pay run period and automatically add the hours’ balance as pay is processed. Problem solved.
