Premium for the position

Premium for the position

The premium for the position is the variation of the employee's salary when the latter occupies a specific position. In fact, an employee can work at different hourly rates, depending on the position occupied.
The premium for the position will be included when calculating the hourly premium and the cumulative premium, if applicable when the employee works at this position.
This will be calculated like this:
Base salary (compensation) + Premium amount (+/-)
Example:
The employee's default position is "secretary" and his salary on file is $20 an hour. When this employee works as an "accountant" Emprez will calculate a premium of $3 for each hour worked in this position.
Other types of premiums are available on Emprez, for more information we invite you to discover the article: Overview of the different types of premiums.
