You have three options to record holiday pay:
You have three options to record holiday pay:
- You can record the holiday hours at the regular rate.
- You can record the holiday hours at an additional rate.
- You can record the total value of the holiday pay under the Other Amount field.
Regardless of which method you choose, you will want to add a Paystub Note to explain that your employee is being paid for a holiday.
Please note that if you have an accrual PTO or Sick Leave Policy, hours will be accrued if you record holiday pay as regular pay or additional pay.
If you do not want any time off to accrue on holiday pay, please enter the total dollar value as an Other Amount.
We always encourage you to list any paid holidays in the contract with your employee.
We have a Sample Nanny Contract and a Sample Caregiver Contract that you can use to help write your own!
