The Record of Employment

Payroll for North America supports legislated Canadian payroll reporting requirements, including the ROE form. The ROE reports an employee's record of earnings as a result of an interruption of earnings to Service Canada (SC). SC uses the employment history provided on the ROE to:

• Determine whether an applicant qualifies for Employment Insurance (EI) benefits.

• Calculate the EI benefit rate.

• Establish the duration of eligibility for benefits.

• Detect fraud and abuse of the EI program.

Note:

The accuracy of the data on the ROE form depends on the integrity and timeliness of the information in the system. You must enter manual cheques that you issued to the employee and final earnings payable before generating a ROE.
