Understanding Maternity Leave
In Global Payroll for Switzerland you enter maternity leave data on a single page. The page generates absence take elements that work with the core application's absence process to correctly process maternity leave during a payroll run.
The system determines the amount of paid maternity leave to which an employee is entitled based on years of service and the canton of residence. After the birth of child, it recalculates entitlement based on the Swiss legal requirement of eight weeks' leave after the child's actual birth. To accomplish this, the PeopleSoft system uses the maternity code list set (CH_MATERNITY) to process maternity absence.
