Step 1: Click Occupations and then click the program you need to create a wage schedule for.
Step 2: On the program's Occupation Details page - General tab, click the blue ADD WAGES+ button.
Step 3: Set the wage schedule information
- Required fields include:
- Schedule Type
- Rate Type
- Step 1 Entry Wage
- Last Step Journey Worker Wage
- at least 1 Wage Step
- Schedule Type - Indicates the type of information on which the wage trigger, notifying you that an apprentice is potentially eligible for a wage increase, will occur.
- Rate Type - Indicates whether any wage increases will be set as a set dollar amount or a percentage of the journey worker wage.
- Wage Step - To add a wage step, click the Add Wage Step + button and then select or type the appropriate level (ex 1000 hours) and input the wage increase (dollar amount or % of journey worker wage).
- Note: Apprentices will always begin by receiving the program's Entry Wage. Apprentices will then be eligible for wage increases based on the Steps you set.
- Example: Schedule Settings = Schedule Type - OJT Hour Based; Rate Type - Percentage Based; Step 1 Entry - $14; Added Wage Step - Step 2 - 50% of journey worker Wage; Last Step Journey Worker Wage - $30
- With the example settings above, a new apprentice would show in the system with an entry and current wage of $14. Once they submit 1000 OJT hours, the system will trigger a wage notice that the apprentice is eligible for an increase to $15 (50% of $30 journey worker wage).
Step 4: Click on Activity-Wages to see all participants eligible for a wage increase and approve, deny or comment on the increase.
