Representation of multiple contracts of employees along with pay components

[akoutsompinas]

Hello Compensation experts! Our client has decided for different reasons (tax purposes etc.) to sign different contracts with employees that may be moving along different countries. For some cases, a user might have even up to 4 contracts (the main one with Greece and three more with England, Ghana & Cyprus). Ηaving so many different contracts, they need a proper way of recording all this info in the system so they can report on it. In the beginning they just wanted to record the different salaries, therefore we decided to create multiple pay components with distinctive names so they know from the code for which country is the contract for. Now they have extended their request and they want to be able to report on the following information: country, employment class, employment type, legal entity, amount, currency, individual/non individual etc. for EVERY contract that a user might have. Global assignment and concurrent employment features cannot serve this purpose. Therefore we would like to ask if any of you has faced any similar request in the past and how you decided to move forward. Maybe custom fields in the pay component recurring section? Or a custom portlet to maintain all this info? But we need to take into consideration the compensation module that will start to be developed in the following months.

Hi @akoutsompinas 

So after a review with my colleagues they all agree that the answer to this is with the Concurrent Employment feature of EC. 

All the best

hi @akoutsompinas 

I just pinged my EC expert colleagues on this to check if they've come accross this before.

I can't recommend customizing the fields inside the recurring pay component because it can lead to issues when publishing back from Comp to EC (for example for people that are on the worksheet but are not getting an increase). And to tackle this issue we need to build lots of customized fields.

Off the top of my head one pay component with the business unit code could be the best option.

Can you give us an example using numbers of what is going to be used as the base for increase in Compensation for this employee with 4 contracts ?

in Greece : 30k

in England : 40k

in Ghana : 20k.

What do we use for Compensation review ? the sum of all of it ? or they increase each salary independly and using different planners ?
