Concept: FLSA Bonus Allocation

Workday calculates bonus amounts for FLSA-eligible workers on leave of absence (LOA) based on how you configure the bonus earning.

On the

Create Earning

task, your selections within the Calculation Proration
section and the

FLSA Bonus Allocation Across Coverage Dates

field on the

Effective Dated

tab determine the bonus allocation. Here's what Workday does based on your configuration:

Workers must have pay results for a period to receive a bonus amount to that period. When the worker is on LOA for the entire period, there must be a zero amount pay result. Configure run categories to create results for workers on leave.

When you terminate a worker during the coverage window, Workday allocates the bonus to FLSA periods before the termination, based on proration settings.

Workday doesn't support the

Prorate Using Annual Working Days

option when you configure the

FLSA Bonus Allocation Across Coverage Dates

field. Workday uses the number of FLSA periods within coverage dates instead.
