In BrioHR, there are three (3) formula to calculate basis of unpaid leave calculations =
- Fixed Number of Days
- Working Days in Current Calendar Month (including public holidays)
- All Days in Current Calendar Month (including public holidays)
It's important to know how the daily rate is being calculated for every formula above.
If you're looking for where to set up basis of unpaid leave calculation, please refer here
Fixed Number of Days
Salary/ (Number of working days set in the system) = Daily Rate
Example:
Salary = RM 5,000
Unpaid Fixed Days set in the System = 26
Unpaid leave taken = 5 days
RM 5000 / 26 = daily rate = RM 192.30
RM 192.30 (daily rate) x 5 (days of unpaid leave) = RM 961.538 (this is the amount to be deducted from gross salary)
Working Days in Current Calendar Month
Salary/(Total days in the month - Total weekends in the month) = Daily Rate
Example:
Salary = RM 5000
Month = March 2023 (23 working days if 5-day work day)
Unpaid leave taken = 5 days
RM 5000 / 23 working days in March 2023 = daily rate = RM 217.3913
RM 219.3913 (daily rate) x 5 (days of unpaid leave) = RM 1,086.9565 (this is the amount to be deducted from gross salary)
All Days in Current Calendar Month
Salary/ (calendar days in the month) = Daily Rate
Example:
Salary = RM 5000
Month = March 2023
Days in the month = 31 days
Unpaid leave taken = 5 days
RM 5000/31 days = daily rate = RM 161.2903
RM 161.2903 x 5 (days of unpaid leave) = RM 806.4516 (this is the amount to be deducted from gross salary)
