When creating a pay run, each person’s shift will be generated based on the calculated EBA.
To calculate the EBA, the system will go through the following rules (in the order shown):
Employee EBA
Specialisation + Employment type + Project
Specialisation + Employment type + Client
Specialisation + Employment type + Pay Region
Booking depot
Default EBA selected in the payroll cost centre
It will continue processing the rules until one matches the shift. Once a match is found, it will override the default EBA selected for the payroll cost centre and apply the EBA from the rule.
Employee EBA
This is the EBA assigned to an individual employee.
To assign an EBA to an employee:
Navigate to Payroll on the sidebar
Select the Employee Payroll tab
Select the desired Employee
Select the desired EBA from the dropdown menu
Click Save
If an employee is assigned an EBA, that EBA will always be applied to the person’s shift in the pay run, and no other rules will be considered.
Specialisation + Employment Type + Project
Create an EBA rule based on a person’s specialisation, employment type, the project and location context from the booking.
For example, you may have:
IF a pay run is created with a payroll cost centre containing the EBA rule,
AND the person is a Traffic Controller on their person profile
AND their profile shows they are a full-time employee,
AND there is a booking project
THEN apply desired EBA
Specialisation + Employment Type + Client
Create an EBA rule based on the specialisation of the booking person, the employment type of the person, and the client from the booking.
For example, you may have:
IF a pay run is created with a payroll cost centre containing the EBA rule,
AND a person is a Traffic Controller,
AND their profile lists them as a full-time employee type,
AND there is a specific Client on the booking,
THEN apply desired EBA
Specialisation + Employment Type + Pay Region
Create an EBA rule based on the specialisation, employment type and pay region of the booking person.
For example, you may have:
IF a pay run is created with a payroll cost centre containing the EBA rule,
AND a person is a Traffic Controller,
THEN use desired EBA
Booking Depot
Create an EBA rule based on the depot of the booking.
For example, you may have:
IF a pay run is created with a payroll cost centre containing the EBA rule,
AND there is a specific depot,
THEN apply desired EBA
Default EBA selected in the payroll cost centre
If the above rules do not match the person's shift, it will default to the EBA chosen in the payroll cost centre.
