Calculating Forego Amounts
Forego Amounts use the same calculation for three scenarios:
-
Daily impact for each shift that's entirely in an employee's Leave Request range
For example, an employee submits a Leave Request for each shift in a Leave Request range.
- Calculated as pay rate multiplied by scheduled hours.
-
Daily impact for each shift that's overlapping days in an employee's Leave Request range
For example, an employee submits a Leave Request for each shift in a Leave Request range, but the calculation only includes the scheduled overnight hours if they have scheduled overnight hours.
- It is calculated as the pay rate multiplied by scheduled hours.
-
Leave Request impact for each Leave Request range (a group of days in a Leave Request)
For example, an employee submits a Leave Request for each shift in a Leave Request range.- Calculated as pay rate multiplied by scheduled hours for all days in the Leave Request; the Forego Amount equals the sum of all shifts in the Leave Request range.
