2. Entering or validating employee information

Step 2 or 3: Employee information

Based on the selection made in the previous step, you may enter or validate the employee’s basic information.

The modifications and results obtained during a simulation are not saved to the employee file.

1Under Pay period, modify the End of period date, as needed.  

Make sure to select the correct end of period date in order for the system to run the calculations accurately, because the choice of pay period can have an impact on certain contributions, such as the monthly union dues.

Warning

IMPORTANT

By default, the End of period date field indicates the date of the next pay period based on your company’s calendar. If you wish to perform a simulation for a prior pay, for example, to simulate a separate payment, you have to select the corresponding prior pay period.

The pay period end date must be subsequent to the employee’s date of hire.

2Under Personal information and Residential address, enter or validate the employee’s personal information.  

 

3If your business has a preferential employment insurance rate for this employee, make sure to select “Reduced rate” in Employment insurance rate under Employment.  

“Regular rate” is selected by default.

4Validate or select the pay Province of the employee.

5Under Remuneration type, select "Rate by trade".

6Validate or enter the employee’s first workday in Employment date.

7Validate or enter the forcasted Number of hours per pay.

8Do not impute a value in the Hourly rate, Wages per period and Annual salary fields. Once you click on save, the hourly rate will appear  according to the information entered in the Construction section.

9Under Personal income tax credits and tax reductions, use the Basic personal amount field to validate or select the type of federal and provincial tax reductions applicable to the employee. If other tax credits or tax reductions apply (such as medical care or government authorized charitable donations), enter the amount in the appropriate fields.
