Default Bonus Months {FPRM-5}


The normal (i.e. default) bonus months, in which bonuses will be paid to employees, may be specified using this option. When a Personnel Biographical Record {PBOP-1} is created, the system will use the values entered in this screen as the default Bonus Month.


If an employee's normal bonus month differs from the above month, his / her bonus month can be changed using option {FPRI-1}.

Examples:

If all bonuses were to be paid in December, all values would be set to 12.

If employees were to be paid in the month of their birthday, except for those whose birthdays fall prior to 30 April and where payment should be in April,  the values would be:

                       

                       04          for January to April
                       05 - 12   for May to December, respectively.

Must Bonus be Prorated in First Year? A1 Personnel, who reach the end of their bonus month before their twelfth month of service, will automatically receive a prorated bonus, if this indicator is set to “Y” otherwise there is no bonus.

Personnel, who resign before a full bonus year has passed, will receive no bonus, irrespective of the indicator setting. Those who resign on the last day of their bonus month, during their first year of service, will receive a prorated bonus, if the indicator is set to “Y” otherwise there is no bonus.

Personnel who have been employed for a full year, since the previous bonus, or since they joined the institution, qualify for an automatic bonus, irrespective of the indicator setting.
