If you're looking for guidance on setting up the basis for unpaid leave calculation in the system, please refer to the detailed instructions provided here.
1. Fixed Number of Days
Salary / (Number of working days set in the system) = Daily Rate
Example:
- Salary: RM 5,000
- Unpaid Fixed Days Set in the System: 26 days
- Unpaid Leave Taken: 5 days
Calculation:
RM 5,000 / 26 = Daily Rate = RM 192.30
RM 192.30 (Daily Rate) x 5 (Days of Unpaid Leave) = RM 961.54 (Amount to be deducted from gross salary)
2. Working Days in the Current Calendar Month
Salary / (Total days in the month - Total weekends in the month) = Daily Rate
Example:
- Salary: RM 5,000
- Month: March 2023 (23 working days if a 5-day workweek)
- Unpaid Leave Taken: 5 days
Calculation:
RM 5,000 / 23 Working Days in March 2023 = Daily Rate = RM 217.39
RM 217.39 (Daily Rate) x 5 (Days of Unpaid Leave) = RM 1,086.95 (Amount to be deducted from gross salary)
3. All Days in the Current Calendar Month
Salary / (Total calendar days in the month) = Daily Rate
Example:
- Salary: RM 5,000
- Month: March 2023
- Days in the Month: 31 days
- Unpaid Leave Taken: 5 days
Calculation:
RM 5,000 / 31 Days = Daily Rate = RM 161.29
RM 161.29 x 5 (Days of Unpaid Leave) = RM 806.45 (Amount to be deducted from gross salary)
