Only clients with multiple rates can use this function to modify the rates.

 

Things to remember

A classification rate is a premium rate established by the SST, which corresponds to a classification unit (or units) determined by the company’s activities.

1Under Classification rate for each company, enter the required information for each company:  

New rate: Rate indicated on the SST notice that you received. The rate has to be between 0 and 25% and will become mandatory when there is an effective date.

Effective rate: Date for which the rate will be applied. Only a date within the current year or the next year is accepted. If no date is entered, the date of the current day is generated.

Things to remember

If the month indicated is October or November, a message enquiring if this is a change affecting the current year will pop up. If it is not the case, Effective date will become blank again.

If the current month is December, the system will generate January 1st of the next year.

If Next rate is empty, the date can be equal or greater than the current date.

If a rate is already entered with a future date, the date has to be included between the current day’s date and the next rate’s effective date.

2Click on Save. The information entered will be transferred in Next rate and Effective date.

A history will be created automatically. Click on History to view it.  

Things to remember

The province shown is the one related to the company’s classification rate.  

The Added term will show when a new effective date is entered (whether the rate is different from the previous rate or not) and the term Modified designates a rate change.
