Concept: Pay for Terminated Workers
When the run category of a pay group includes conditions
for paying terminated workers, Workday applies these rules.
When the run category of a pay group includes conditions
for paying terminated workers, or workers with ended additional jobs, Workday applies these
rules.
Terminated Workers on Salary Continuance
Workday generates 2 sub-periods and 2 gross-to-nets when you terminate a worker
mid-period who has a pay through date before the period end date. This enables you to
process pay for terminated workers:
- After the termination date.
- In the same pay period as the termination.
- Example: Single Job with Mid-Period Termination
- The current monthly pay period is 2012-01-01 to 2012-01-31. Jacques is terminated on 2012-01-03 and has aPay Through Dateof 2012-03-31. For the January pay period, Workday calculates a separate gross-to-net amount for these subperiods:
- 2012-01-01 to 2012-01-03.
- 2012-01-04 to 2012-01-31.
If thePay Through Datewas 2012-01-18, Workday would calculate the gross-to-net for the first subperiod only:- 2012-01-01 to 2012-01-03.
- 2012-01-04 to 2012-01-18.
Workers with Ended Additional Jobs
When a worker has multiple jobs, the status of the primary job impacts how Workday
treats ended additional jobs.
Status of Primary Job | Impact on Ended Additional Jobs |
|---|---|
Terminated | Workday can process ended jobs that are in the same pay group, up to the
Pay Through Date of the primary job. |
Active | When the primary and additional jobs are in the same pay group, you can
configure Workday to pay the additional job up to its pay through date. On the
Edit Run Category task, configure the
Nonactive (On Cycle, On Demand Replacement) tab to pay
non-active workers in on-cycle runs.When the primary and additional jobs are in
different pay groups, you can configure Workday to continue to pay the ended
additional job. On the Edit Run Category task for the
additional job, select an Ended Additional Job status in the
Workers to Process section. Workday considers the
worker as active and uses the pay component configuration on the
General tab. |
- Example: Multiple Jobs Terminated with Different Pay Through Dates
- Alan has 2 jobs in the same pay group. Both jobs terminate on 2012-01-10:
- Primary job: Pay Through Date is 2012-03-10.
- Secondary job: Pay Through Date is 2012-04-10.
Workday automatically pays Alan until 2012-03-10. Add payroll input to pay Alan's secondary job from 2012-03-11 to 2012-04-10. - Example: Secondary Job in Different Pay Group than Primary Job Ends
- Melinda's secondary job, which is in a different pay group from Melinda's primary job, ends on 2012-01-10 with aPay Through Dateof 2012-04-10. Workday continues to pay the primary job during on-cycle processing.To continue to pay Melinda's secondary job:
- AccessEdit Run Categorytask for the run category for the secondary job.
- In theWorkers to Processsection, add theEnded Additional Job with Pay Through Datestatus.
Workers with Ended Additional Jobs
When a worker has multiple jobs, the status of the primary job impacts how Workday
treats ended additional jobs.
Status of Primary Job | Impact on Ended Additional Jobs |
|---|---|
Terminated | Workday can process ended jobs that are in the same pay group, up to the
Termination Date of the primary job. |
Active | When the primary and additional jobs are in the same pay group, you can
configure Workday to pay the additional job up to its termination date. On the
Edit Run Category task, configure the
Nonactive (On Cycle, On Demand Replacement) tab to pay
non-active workers in on-cycle runs.When the primary and additional jobs are in
different pay groups, you can configure Workday to continue to pay the ended
additional job. On the Edit Run Category task for the
additional job, select an Ended Additional Job status in the
Workers to Process section. Workday considers the
worker as active and uses the pay component configuration on the
General tab. |

- Primary job: Termination Date is 2012-03-10.

Workday automatically pays Alan until 2012-03-10. Add payroll input to pay Alan's secondary job from 2012-03-11 to 2012-04-10. - Example: Secondary Job in Different Pay Group than Primary Job Ends
- Melinda's secondary job, which is in a different pay group from Melinda's primary job, ends on 2012-01-10 with aTermination Dateof 2012-04-10. Workday continues to pay the primary job during on-cycle processing.To continue to pay Melinda's secondary job:
