Employee Payroll Problems
Bc Canada
I have an employee who was overpaid last pay period.
His paycheque was calculated like this:
130.25 hours
(Should be 110.25)
Week 1: 40 hrs reg/time + 25.25 hrs OT.
Week 2: 20 hrs dbl/time + 25 hrs OT
Works out to 80hrs reg/time + 50.25 hrs OT.
Problem is, he was paid an extra 20 hours of overtime. (30 regular hours)
Payroll for this pay period was this:
110.5 hours.
Week 1: 40 hrs
Week 2: 40 hrs + .5 OT
(Claw back of 30 hours overpaid)
I believe that it should be:
Week 1: 40 hrs + 15 OT
Week 2: 10 hrs + 15.5 OT
Who’s right?
This isn’t the first payroll problem with this employee, and I can’t help but feeling it’s deliberately done by our payroll person and our CPA. (Incompetence is another thought, but it’s always the same employee with issues, so it’s beginning to look more targeted.)
I brought the question up and was told by the CPA to stop meddling in finance, and to stay in my lane.
Guidance would be helpful.
