Create Absence Plans for IJSS and LGI

If the collective agreement rules are more favorable than the LGI rules, then create only the Collective Agreement plan. If there is no collective agreement, create an LGI plan only.

To create a sickness absence plan:

Navigation: Navigator > Absences > Absence Plans

1. In the Absence Plans page, click Create.
2. In the Create Absence Plan window, enter the effective date, France as the Legislation and Qualification as the Plan Type.
3. Click Continue.
4. In the Plan Attributes tab, enter the required details for the absence plan such as the plan name, Legislative Data Group, and others. Enter the other field values as shown:

   	IJSS	LGI	Collective Agreement

Configure Sick Leave Rules for your Collective Agreement

If you operate in a collective agreement (CAGR) where sick leave entitlement and payment rules are more beneficial than the Legal Guarantee Income (LGI) rules, you must configure those CAGR rules using value definitions.

You must first create a CAGR absence plan and then create the entitlement rules for your collective agreement using value definitions.

To do so, please refer to the Configuration Rules for Sickness Absences for the Banking industry document and associated spreadsheet. These documents describe how to configure entitlement rules taking the example of the French banking industry and provide a sample excel file for loading these rules into the system.
