I have noticed on Employee pay slips, for pay weeks that straddle anniversary date ,the weekly annual leave accrual is less or a Proportion of the normal expected accrual (for us 2.92 hrs) . It returns to normal for the rest of the year. Can anyone help me explain this to employees ? I am confident the annual accrual is correct Thanks
Answer
Annual Leave accruals around anniversary dates

At the anniversary of employment, there a number of things that occur.
- Accrued leave is rolled into Earned
- The Entitlement stops accruing ones it reaches its threshold of say 76 hours for personal leave
- If the anniversary falls mid way in the pay period, the accrual prorate splits between completing the leave to the threshold and what falls in to the new year.
What is noticed by employees on their payslips is that they may not get the full complement of the usual accrual. This could be due to number 2, or number three where they only see the 2nd portion of the entitlement reporting.
Number 3 is often hard to explain and it is a quirk of the software – that it only sees the latest entry for the entitlement.
Sorry, not a resolution, but does anything look starnge on your entitlements screen (MPPP3300).
I have a similar probelm with family & domestic violence leave that should reset to 10 days every 12 months. During the week that straddles the anivesary date the system provides employees with 20 days. Then the following week it goes back to the expected 10 days.
