Hi Everyone

I have a staff member going on workers comp and I have read all the previous posts.

I still have one question though I have been told " like all insurance you will need to pay an excess" this excess is to be paid to the worker directly and tax is to be taken out.

I therefore assume this is paid coded workers comp non working?

Qld WorkCover call it an excess but it still goes through payroll as it is going to the worker.

The wording is a little confusing.


Thanks for your help

    Hi @Traceyg


    To pay an employee for Workers Compensation, you can create an earning item for that. You can set-up as per your requirements. Find the attached article for your reference - Pay Items - Reckon Help and Support Centre

    Once is created, you can add that to employee's pay run, and it should calculate with the information (Units/hours or Rate) along with the appropriate tax as calculated for Normal/Ordinary Hours.

    I hope this helps you. Please let us know if you have any concerns/issues. Thank you!


    Regards

    Tanvi
