Employee Class

The Employee Class code represents a user-defined combination of Employee Type, Rate Type, and FLSA Classification (Exempt or Non-Exempt). Upon entering a valid Employee Class code, the three values will default based on the code’s setup in the Manage Employee Class Codes screen.

Employee Type

From the drop-down list, select the position type as Full-time, Part-time, or Temporary. You must select an option in this field if you use SilkRoad.

Rate Type

From the drop-down list, select the classification for the job template. You must select an option in this field if you use SilkRoad.

Valid options are:

  • Hourly: The employee is paid on an hourly basis. The employee's labor cost always reflects the number of hours worked multiplied by the hourly rate of pay. Hourly employees can charge overtime pay types and the labor costs reflect this.
  • Salaried Fixed Hours: The employee is paid the same amount each pay period, regardless of the number of hours worked. Employees in this category cannot charge overtime pay types unless you selected the Allow Overtime for Salaried - FLSA Exempt Employees checkbox on the Overtime Settings subtask of the Configure Labor Settings screen and the pay type being charged has the Salaried checkbox selected in the Employee Eligibility group box on the Manage Pay Types screen.
  • Salaried Fluctuating Hours: The employee is paid a salary, but the number of hours worked in a week fluctuates; the salary amount is affected by the number of hours worked. If the employee is not exempt from FLSA, overtime is paid for hours worked in excess of 40 hours per week, at one and one-half times the basic rate.
