This article will show you how the Public Holiday is paid out for a casual, part-time and full-time variable employee who did not work a shift on the public holiday.
If an employee has not worked on the day of the Public Holiday, may still be entitled to receive Public Holiday accruals if they have worked 40 hours or more in the last 5 weeks.
If they have worked 40 hours or more in the last 5 weeks, Alkimii will calculate the average hour worked over the last 13 weeks, divide this by 13 and divide it by 5 to get the equivalent of one working day.
This is known as the 13-week rule.
Example: A casual worker has worked 47 hours in the last 5 weeks. This employee has NOT worked on the day of the Public Holiday. Given the rule, this employee may be entitled to accrue Public Holiday balances which may be paid out if their organisation chooses to use the auto roster tool. To manually calculate their Public Holiday balance using the above example: 47 ÷ 13 = 34 hours 34 ÷ 5 = 6.8 hours 6.8 hours is the equivalent of 1 working day ** If your hotel config has been set up to include "Real Worked Week", the rule calculates the day equivalent based on the number of weeks worked. For example, if you are a new hire and have only worked 7 weeks with the property, the rule will replace 13 with 7 to calculate the day equivalent. |
If an employee has worked under 40 hours over the last 13 weeks, they will NOT be entitled to accrue Public Holiday balances.
