Question

Unlimited sick time tracking

Our firm offers unlimited sick time for employees. We don't currently track it but we would like to start so we can see what the costs are. As well if possible to have it reflect on a paystub when employees take that time and I enter it.

 

Is it possible to set up a sick pay policy for each employee that we can use when they're off and track everything? My thought was making the sick time renew per pay period to the hours we're paid, 86.67 per period. Is there a better way? 

 

Thanks!

Hello AdminAQR!


You can add unlimited sick pay in QuickBooks Online Payroll. Let me share with you the steps.


Here's how:

  1. Go to the Payroll menu, then select Employees.
  2. Select the employee’s name. In the Pay section, select the Edit (Pencil) icon.
  3. Under How much do you pay [employee]? section, select the Edit (Pencil) icon.
  4. From Time off pay policies section, click the Sick pay drop-down, then select Add new sick pay policy.
  5. Choose Unlimited under the Hours are accrued drop-down, then Save it.


Once done, make sure that the Sick pay drop-down is set to the Unlimited sick pay you created, then click Save again.
