Assign employees to a vacation plan

When your payroll is set up with multiple vacation plans, you can assign a specific plan and accrual rate to an employee.

Prerequisites

Your vacation pay accumulator plan types and descriptions must be set up. They are created by your Service Delivery Team with information you provide to Ceridian.

Tasks

Assign an accumulator plan and rate to an employee

  1. Navigate to the Compensation tab.Closed From the People menu, select People List > Compensation.
  2. Select the employee from the Employee List.

  3. In the Vacation Pay Accumulator section, select the vacation plan for this employee.

    You can have up to eighteen different vacation plans with different calculations for hours and earnings. For example, some provinces indicate that vacation pay is calculated on vacation pay, while others do not. To create new plans, contact your Service Delivery Team.

    Note: The plan defaults to 'Not Applicable' for all existing employees.

  4. Enter the rate of vacation accrual for this employee in the Rate field. Rates are based on legislative requirements and the employee's entitlement.

    For plans that accrue in percentage, enter the percentage as a whole number along with two decimal places (for example, 4 percent would be entered as 4.00 in this field.) Do not enter the percent sign (%).

    For plans accrue in hours per pay, enter the number of hours the employee should accrue per pay. Enter the hours as a whole number along with two decimal places (for example, 7.5 hours would be entered as 7.50 in this field.)

    For legislative requirements, visit the Ceridian Compliance Centre for a link to provincial Employment/Labour Standards sites.

  5. Click Save.

  6. For customers using the Time Off Request module, and setting up accumulators for the first time, also complete the instructions for validating and enabling your standard entitlements. See Time off request account set up.
