Understanding Absence Schemes

Global Payroll for the UK provides you with all the elements required to process these statutory absences:

• Statutory sick pay (SSP).

• Statutory maternity pay (SMP).

• Statutory adoption pay (SAP).

• Statutory paternity pay (SPP).

• Statutory parental bereavement pay (SPBP).

You can use the absence management features in the Global Payroll core application to create your own absence schemes, such as for holidays. UK statutory holiday entitlement has no monetary impact on payroll; it is therefore a human resources issue and is not delivered as a standard template by Global Payroll for the UK You can also create occupational schemes that supplement the statutory absence leave and pay.
