Steps: Set Up an Adjusted Seniority Calculation (FRA)

Steps: Set Up an Adjusted Seniority Calculation (FRA)

  • Create deductions for paid time off, using an absence component related calculation to retrieve time off in days.
  • Create leave types.
You can configure Workday Payroll for France to calculate an adjusted seniority that excludes time offs or leaves of absences where the worker doesn't accrue seniority.
The adjusted seniority calculation is specific to payroll calculations. It’s different from the seniority calculation and length of service dates shown on Human Capital Management reports.
Workday considers workers to continue to accrue seniority while on time off or a leave of absence unless you exclude the absence from the seniority calculation.
  1. (Optional) Access the
    Edit Service Dates
    task for a worker, and complete the
    Seniority Date
    field.
    Workday calculates the adjusted seniority based on the worker's seniority date if it’s available, or hire date if it isn’t.
    Security: Configure the
    Service Dates Change
    business process and security policy in the Staffing functional area.
  2. Access the
    Edit Leave Type
    task for all types of leaves that are excluded from the seniority calculation.
    To freeze seniority accrual while a worker is on leave, select the
    Continuous Service Accrual Effect
    check box.
    Security:
    Set Up: Leave of Absence
    domain in the Time Off and Leave functional area.
  3. To only partially exclude a leave of absence from the adjusted seniority calculation, access the
    Maintain Absence Mapping for Payroll for France
    task.
    Map the leave type to one of these
    DSN Rubric Values
    :
    • 632 - Parental Leave
    • 607 - Parental Presence
    Workday deducts half of the number of days on leave, rounded down to the nearest day, from the adjusted seniority calculation.
    Workday doesn't manage partial parental leaves that need to be taken into account on a full-time basis for seniority calculations.
    Security:
    Set Up: Payroll - FRA
    domain in the FRA Payroll functional area.
  4. Access the
    Edit Deduction
    task for deductions based on time offs excluded from the seniority calculation.
    On the
    Effective Dated
    tab, in the
    Related Calculations
    grid, access the related calculation that retrieves the amount of time off in days.
    To freeze seniority accrual while a worker is absent, select
    FRA Time Offs Freezing Seniority [FRA]
    from the
    Groups
    prompt.
    Security:
    Set Up: Payroll (Calculations - Payroll Specific)
    domain in the Core Payroll functional area.
To view reference values, access the
Gross to Net
tab in a worker's pay results and view these
Related Values
for the
Memo - Reference Values for Seniority
deduction:
  • Seniority Months Adjusted
