My department does not pay premium pay to non-exempt employees, but my employee received overtime pay. What happened?
If the department wishes to grant leave rather than premium pay compensation to non-exempt employees, the HRMS Specialist must change the Earning Policy to OT Leave. The change must be made on the first day of a pay period. I have an employee who has a primary unit salary basis assignment plus a wage assignment. The employee says that when he/she attempts to enter time in the wage assignment timecard in SSTL, an error message occurs that says: Hrs- Error occurred while validating Earning Policy. What does this mean, and how do we correct the error? If the employee has a unit salary basis assignment that is primary, with a secondary wage assignment, the HRMS Specialist will need to change the primary assignment to the wage assignment, and enter information in the Time Information flex fields. There is no Time Information in the primary goal pay assignment, so the wage assignment cannot be validated until this action is completed.
