Earnings

Earning	Description
STG OBL AT	For trainees undergoing mandatory training with AT coverage.
STG OBL NAT	For trainees undergoing mandatory training without AT coverage.
STG NOBL	For trainees undergoing non-mandatory training.

These earning are automatically segmented and prorated when they are assigned to payees on the Element Assignment by Payee or Payee Assignment by Element pages and the assignment period covers only a portion of the pay period.

See PeopleSoft Global Payroll: Payee Overrides and Segmentation.

All of these earnings add to the accumulator GEN AC BRUT SG. The delivered rules compare these earnings to the minimum salary or relevant percentage of the minimum salary.

PeopleSoft delivers variables specifically for trainees that you may need to define by entering supporting element overrides. There are two types of variables:

• Variables used in conjunction with the trainee earnings.

  GEN VR STAG NB M and GEN VR STG NSIR affect the processing of trainee earnings listed in the previous table.

• Variables used for trainees who don't receive compensation.

  In certain cases, contributions must be paid for trainees who are not paid. However, these trainees aren't assigned the trainee earnings, and contributions are therefore not triggered in the normal way. To indicate situations in which there is no compensation and contributions are due, PeopleSoft delivers variables GEN VR STG O AT, GEN VR STG ONAT, and GEN VR STG NOBL.

Variable	Description
GEN VR STAG NB M	Used to indicate the period that an allowance covers. The default value is 1, which means that compensation is paid each month. Override this variable if you pay trainees for multiple months in only one payroll. In such cases, the system needs to control that this compensation falls within the legal limits multiplied by the number of months. For example, if a trainee stays with an organization for two months for mandatory training and the trainee is paid at the end of the two month period, you must override GEN VR STAG NB M with 2 to ensure that the system correctly calculates the contributions.
GEN VR STG NSIR	Used to indicate whether the training lasts more or less than three months. This information is used to determine whether the compensation paid to the trainee is subject to income tax (that is, whether the accumulator GEN AC NET FISCAL is populated by the compensation amount). For mandatory training with a duration of three months or less, the variable is set to 1 (this is the default value). If you want to indicate that the training lasts more than three months, override the variable GEN VR STAG NSIR by assigning the value zero (0) or by using the variable GP FALSE.
GEN VR STG O AT	Used to indicate mandatory training with work accident coverage for trainees who don't receive compensation.
GEN VR STG ONAT	Used to indicate mandatory training without work accident coverage for trainees who don't receive compensation.
GEN VR STG NOBL	Used to indicate non-mandatory training for trainees who don't receive compensation.
