Defining Salary Advances

Salary advance is usually paid at the 10th or 15th of the month. The advance is based on 40 percent of the monthly salary and the number of days worked during the month. The remainder of the monthly salary (the balance) is then paid on the 5th of the following month.

The monthly salary calculation varies by employee type:

  • Monthly employees: 40 percent of minimum wage.

  • Hourly employees: 40 percent of a 220-hour month at the hourly minimum wage.

  • Commission Employees: 40 percent of average commissions.

The system uses the following information when processing salary advances:

  • Employee HR information: Name, registration, hire date.

  • Time management information: Absences, vacations.

If the salary advance and the balance payment are not made in the same month, the company is required to withhold income tax on the advance payment.
