Handling Holiday Entitlement and Pay for Casual Staff
👤 This applies to casual staff who are paid per job, either on an hourly or daily rate. They typically have no guaranteed hours and work as and when needed. Their payments often vary depending on the specific job.
🧠 What is the solution? For casual staff, rolled-up holiday pay can be a practical approach. This means adding a percentage to each payment to cover holiday entitlement.
🔢 Calculation Tip: Statutory Holiday Pay: Multiply the amount paid by 0.1207 (12.07%). This percentage ensures compliance with the statutory 5.6 weeks of paid leave.
No more juggling multiple systems or drowning in spreadsheets.
