Add/Edit Wage Groups & Classes
This Module step is used to setup wage groups and wage classes. Wage groups can be used for custom reporting and wage classes add the ability to pay an employee multiple rates of pay. This Module step is optional. If you do not plan to do any custom reporting or use multiple pay rates you can skip this step.
One wage class should be setup for each unique rate of pay. Wage classes must be arranged into one or more wage groups. For example, if you are a union employer than each union would be setup as a different wage group. Each rate of pay within the union would be setup as a wage class.
To enter a wage class begin by selecting the wage group from the scroll box or press [New] to enter a new wage group. All previously entered wage classes for the selected wage group will be displayed in the Wage Class list. Select the wage class number from the scroll box or enter a new wage class number.
For each wage class enter a description, workers compensation code, type of pay, regular rate, time and a half rate and double time rate. The time and a half and double time rates will automatically calculate the first time you enter the regular rate. If there are wage class deductions associated with this rate of pay, press the deduction button to enter the information.
