Maintain Employment Records #

The Maintain Employment Record (IEEI) form defines the employment relationship an employee has with the organization and contains the information associated with that employment agreement: hire date, basic service dates and termination details.

An employee must have at least one employment record which is created automatically by either the Establish Personal Profiles (IEHR) or Quick Hire (IEQH) form. When an employee is terminated, the employment record is considered closed. If they are rehired in the same type of relationship, a new employment record is created with a different hire date.

An employee will have more than one employment record if they have other relationships with the organization, either past or present.

For example, an employee takes an early retirement package from the organization, and becomes a retiree entitled to a pension and certain benefits coverage. Five years later, the retiree returns to the organization as an independent consultant hired on a contract. This employee would have three employment type records: a closed employee record, an active retiree record and an active contractor record.

For each period of employment an employee has, there may be a separate employment record. If an employee is hired, terminated and later rehired, you may create one employment record for the first period of employment and one employment record for the second period.

Each employment record is tied to its own set of employment related data such as the associated assignments and pay history. A new period of employment cannot be within a previous employment period if it is of the same employment type. Hiring is done through Establish Personnel Profiles (IEHR) form, as describe earlier in this workbook.

For Canadian installations only: Each employment record corresponds to a period of employment used for ROE reporting purposes.

Employment data is stored in the P2K_HR_EMPLOYMENTS table.

Employment Type

When an employee is hired, their employment type will be inherited from the group, but you may override the data through the IEHR form. This employment type will be displayed on the id line of all of the employee-related forms. This field is derived from the Employment Type entered on the Group (IDGR) record. It may be overridden on IEHR at the point of hire, but may not be changed at any other point, after the record is saved. Employment_Type is derived from the IEHR form and cannot be changed directly on this screen.

First_Work_Date is an optional date which may be system derived. You may manually enter or use the calendar (F9) for any date changes that may occur.

- It is the start date of the Stability Period which will extend forward for the number of months indicated in IBACA.
- During this period UBACA will not recalculate hours worked or a wage rate to determine if the employee is FT or PT or whether the medical coverage is Affordable.
- The employees ACA status is fixed as of this date and will extend to the end of the Stability Period when a new measurement period will determine the next stability date and ACA status.
- During a new employees UBACA processing, there will be no stability date entered until the last month of the Look Back period has been reached.
- Newly hired and terminated employees will have to be reviewed and modified as needed in IBACAE once UBACA is ran for all employees for all months of the reporting year

Override User Profile

If this field is populated, on login to SelfService it will override the user profile defined on IEID. In order for the override user profile function to work properly, the IEMSS-Employment Selection function has to be enabled (rights can be granted via IMER).  Once the SelfService user authenticates, they are able to switch between employments and the user profile tied to that employment should come into effect.
