9 Premium Pay, Bonuses, and Deductions

Premium pay is additional pay for situations such as night shifts, holiday work, Sunday work, and standby duty. Labor Management enables you to set up premium pay by:
  • Amount: Flat amount or percentage increase to employee pay. For example, an employee working on Christmas receives a flat increase of $50.

  • Hours: Pay increase based on additional hours charged at a flat rate or a set wage. For example, employees working on Christmas receive normal wages a second time for the hours worked, effectively doubling their wages.

  • Split Shift: Compensation worth an extra hour of work or cases where an employee works more than one shift in a day. For example, some states legally require stores to compensate employees for an hour if two shifts are more than one hour apart.

You can configure flat or percentage-based additions and deductions for adjustments such as uniform fees and holiday bonuses. For example, you can configure a $50 repair fee as a flat deduction for damaging uniforms or you can configure $20 bonuses for winning employee of the month honors.
