General

Apply SSP

Select this check box to apply UK SSP to the selected absence parameter.

Note: The following fields are only enabled if the Apply SSP check box is selected.

SSP offset against OSP

Select this check box if UK SSP is calculated and included within the OSP amount, therefore OSP is reduced by the amount of UK SSP. Leave blank if UK SSP is paid in addition to OSP to determine total sick pay.

SSP paid if full entitlement stops

Select this check box if UK SSP will still be paid when the employee's OSP entitlement is less than 100%.

Use OSP Pattern for SSP Qual days

Select this check box to use the OSP qualifying days work pattern to build the qualifying days for UK SSP. If this check box is blank, the default work pattern specified in Leave Management Parameters is used.

Pay OSP on School Closure

This check box is only enabled for ROLLBACK entitlement types when the Standard Dates field in Leave Management Parameters is set to E. Select this check box to make OSP payments for school closure days without reducing OSP entitlement. The OSP payment reason used for such payments is SCHCLO. When this check box is selected, the Planned Work Time (PWT) functionality in the Time Management module applies normal working hours to standard days from the default work pattern to ensure absences on these days are treated appropriately for OSP payments. When this check box is blank, PWT applies zero hours to standard days.

Note: If an absence begins before the school closure period, the OSP payment rate paid on the day immediately prior to the first school closure day is used throughout the school closure period and no OSP entitlement is used during this period.
