Paying Holiday Rates for Visits

In order for an Employee to receive holiday pay for a Visit when Payroll is run, the following conditions must be respected:

1. The Employee must be eligible for holiday pay by virtue of their Employment Type.
2. The day the Visit takes place must be configured as a holiday.
3. The Service Code of the Visit must have a Holiday Pay Code set.

Paying Holiday Rates for Premiums

If an Employee is eligible for a Visit Premium or a Daily Premium on a holiday, the Premium can only apply the Pay Code set on it in Accounting Settings, so the rate will not vary based on a holiday.

It is possible, however, to set up a Premium Rule specifically for holidays, which will automatically calculate a payroll item with your Pay Code of choice when applicable.

This will apply to all Employees, whether or not their Employment Type qualifies them for holiday pay otherwise.
