The Employee Wage Increase menu is used if your employees have individual rates on their employee profiles (see Rates & Class) as opposed to a generic class rate under the Labour Class Rate Grid. |
The two key sections of the Employee Wage Increase menu are:
1.The Effective Date
All rates in StaffScheduleCare are date driven. The date you select here will determine when the increase becomes effective.
