Pay Differential

Pay/Wage differential is a term used in time tracking and payroll systems to analyze the relation between the wage rate and the risk or attributes of a particular job. In the TimeLogix system, this could be accomplished using schedules. At the time schedules are being assigned, each schedule can be configured to have a specific rate. There are two pay differentials that can be configured: with a fixed rate for the schedule or with a multiple of the hourly rate.

Assigning Pay Differentials to Schedules:

Click on Schedules.
Select one or more employees from the list.
Select the days for the schedule.
Confirm steps 1-6 are accurate.
On step 7 (Pay Differential) check mark it and then select from the drop either Fixed or Multiple.

- Fixed.- Enter a fixed hourly rate amount for hours worked within this schedule.
For example: If you want to pay the employee $12/hr instead of their normal $10 per hour rate, then just enter $12 in this field.

- Multiple.- Enter a number that will be multiplied times the base hourly rate defined on the employee profile.
For example: If you want to pay the employee 2 times their normal rate, enter 2 in the multiple fields.

Then click create to finish.
