Note: The value of GEN VR ACTION on the Data page of the Bracket is set to TER or RET because the bracket applies to termination allowances.

IND BR FIN CONT

The value of this element is not used.

GEN VR MOTIF

Contains the Reason code that triggers the allowance. You must update the reason codes in the bracket to indicate the reasons a payee may be entitled to the allowances.

IND VR DT ICCP

This variable is used to trigger the allowance CP ICCP 1A (compensation in lieu of paid holiday) and must be assigned a value of true or false (1 or 0). 1 triggers the allowance, while 0 prevents payment.

Note: The variable must be set to 0 if the termination reason is gross misconduct.

   

IND VR DT IFC

This variable is used to determine entitlement to the end of fixed-term contract allowance IND FIN CONT and must be assigned a value of true or false (1 or 0). 1 triggers the allowance, while 0 prevents payment.

   

IND VR DT LIC

The variable IND VR DT LIC is used to determine entitlement to the severance allowance IND LICENC and IND LICENC 2.

If the value returned is equal to false (0), the Action/Reason does not give entitlement to the severance allowance.

   

IND VR DT LIC ECO

This variable is used to determine if economic redundancy is the reason for a termination. This variable will be taken into consideration only if the variable IND VR DT LIC returns a value of true (1 for redundancy termination. If the variable returns a value of true (1), the payee is entitled to have his or her severance allowance doubled compared to the standard allowance (if notification of the redundancy occurred after May 7, 2002).
