SUBJECT: Pay Equity Implementation - CR, ST, DA-CON, HS, LS and EU Groups

1. PURPOSE

1.1 The purpose of this directive is to provide information on the implementation of the Pay Equity Agreement as agreed to between the Treasury Board Secretariat (TBS) and the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) on October 29, 1999, and approved by the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal (CHRT) on November 16, 1999. This agreement affects the Clerical and Regulatory (CR), Library Science (LS), Educational Support (EU), Data Processing (DA-CON), Secretarial, Stenographic and Typing (ST) and Hospital Services (HS) groups. This directive will also provide information on the processing schedule and reporting requirements for implementation of the agreement.

1.2 This directive must be read in conjunction with Compensation Directive 1997-041 dated December 5, 1997 entitled "Equalization Adjustment - CR, ST, DA, HS, LS and EU Groups" and Compensation Directive 2000-001 dated January 10, 2000, entitled "Pay Equity Adjustment Reports - CR, ST, DA, HS, LS and EU Groups".

1.3 In this text, use of masculine is generic and applies to both men and women.

2. BACKGROUND

2.1 TBS authorized payment of a Pay Equity adjustment for employees in the CR, LS, EU, DA-CON, ST and HS groups in departments and agencies listed under Schedule 1, Part 1 of the Public Service Staff Relations Act (PSSRA) based on the Tribunal ruling rendered on July 29, 1998.

2.2 In December 1997, Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) produced several reports for both active and inactive accounts to facilitate the work in departments. These reports were reproduced on January 14, 2000, to facilitate the preparatory work required by departments to accurately process the Pay Equity adjustments as defined in the final agreement.

2.3 This directive includes the following:

  • Section 3 Policy, Eligibility and Payments
  • Section 4 Processing Schedule
  • Section 5 Procedures and Reporting Requirements
  • Section 6 New Messages
  • Section 7 Superannuation
  • Appendix A Pay Equity Adjustment Rates
  • Appendix B PWGSC Administration Rates of Pay
  • Appendix C Separation Benefits Table

3. POLICY

3.1. Eligibility

Employees must meet the following requirements based on the agreement between TBS and PSAC to be eligible for a Pay Equity adjustment:

  • Be employed by a TBS department or agency listed in Schedule 1, Part 1 of the PSSRA within the period covered by the agreement.
  • Have service in one of the following affected groups during the retroactive period of March 8, 1985, to July 28, 1998, i.e. CR, LS, EU, DA-CON, ST and HS groups.

3.2. Factors

Employees with service in one of the affected groups during the retroactive period are entitled to a Pay Equity adjustment based on the following factors:

  • Actual group, subgroup and level during the retroactive period.
  • Annual amounts varying by fiscal year.
  • Leave with Income Averaging (LIA), Pre-retirement Leave (PRL) and part-time employment (prorating of hours worked).
  • Reduced by periods of Leave without pay (LWOP) except for periods of maternity benefits up to a maximum of 17 weeks.
  • Acting pay (code 002) within one of the affected groups.
  • Acting premium (code 238) which is not considered during retroactive period.
  • Acting pay (code 002) outside of the affected groups is not considered in retroactivity for employees even though the substantive position is in one of the affected groups.

3.2.1. Leave with Income Averaging /Pre-retirement Leave (LIA / PRL)

The retroactive Pay Equity adjustment will be reduced by periods of PRL and past periods of LIA as reflected in the employee's Salary Service History (SSH) records. Pension contributions will be withheld for the periods of LWOP at the rate applicable to the year in which the leave occurred.


3.2.2. Part-time

Employees in one of the affected groups whose Assigned Work Week (AWW) is less than the Standard Work Week (SWW) are to be paid the Pay Equity adjustment prorated to the number of hours worked during the retroactive period. The payment will be reduced by periods of LWOP if applicable.

The formula in the Regional Pay System (RPS) for prorating for part-time employees is the following: AWW divided by 5, multiplied by the number of work days in the retroactive period.

Example:

DA-CON-03   SWW = 37.50 hours per week
AWW = 30 hours, from June 1, 1990 to November 30, 1990
AWW = 22.5 hours, from December 1, 1990 to November 30, 1991
AWW = 30 hours, from December 1, 1991 to December 22, 1991

Pay Equity adjustment from June 1, 1990 to November 30, 1990
30 hours per week ÷ 5 days per week = 6 hours per day
131 days x 6 hours per day = 786 hours

Pay Equity adjustment from December 1, 1990 to November 30, 1991
22.5 hours per week ÷ 5 days per week = 4.5 hours per day
260 days x 4.5 hours per day = 1170 hours

Pay Equity adjustment from December 1, 1991 December 22, 1991
30 hours per week ÷ 5 days per week = 6 hours per day
15 days x 6 hours per day = 90 hours

Continuous calculations at 6 hours per day until the end of the retroactive period.

3.2.3. Leave Without Pay (LWOP)

Pay Equity adjustments must be reduced by periods of LWOP. Pension contributions for contributory service are to be withheld for these periods at the single, double or nil rate based on the reason code for LWOP.

The pension deficiencies will be collected using codes 202 for single rate and code 270 for double rate. Treasury Board has established a special pension contribution rate for the retroactive period from March 8, 1985, to December 25, 1996, of 4.7% for single rate and of 9.4% for double rate. For LWOP after December 25, 1996 superannuation will be collected at the low rate applicable for the year in which the LWOP occurred up to the maximum yearly low rate contribution and then at the high rate.

EXCEPTION:

LWOP - Maternity reason code "K". Maternity leave where the employee received maternity benefits is to be included in the calculation of the entitlement for the Pay Equity adjustment. Up to a maximum of 17 weeks is to be counted as total entitlement. Maternity leave that extends beyond 17 weeks or where benefits were not paid is to be considered as LWOP and will reduce the retroactive Pay Equity adjustment amount.

Example:

Temporarily Struck-off Strength (T- SOS) effective September 1, 1991 - reason "K"
Reason code changes to "U" effective April 1, 1992
Reason code changes to "K" effective September 1, 1992
Employee Re-taken on Strength (RE- TOS) effective March 1, 1993

Pay Equity adjustment should be paid for the period from September 1, 1991, to December 29, 1991.

Deficiencies should be collected for the period not paid from December 30, 1991, to March 31, 1992, at the single rate of 4.7%; from April 1, 1992, to August 31, 1992, at the double rate of 9.4%; and from September 1, 1992, to February 28, 1993, at the single rate of 4.7%.

3.2.4. Acting Pay

Employees who were acting (code 002) in one of the affected groups during the retroactive period, whether or not their substantive position is in one of the affected groups, are eligible to the Pay Equity adjustment based on their acting classification.

Employees whose substantive position was in one of the affected groups during the retroactive period but who were acting (code 002) outside of one of the affected groups are not eligible to the Pay Equity adjustment during the period in which they were acting.

3.2.5. Acting Premium

Employees whose substantive position was in one of the affected groups and who received acting premium (code 238), while this code was in effect, are to be paid the Pay Equity adjustment based on their substantive group and level.

If the employee's substantive position was not in one of the affected groups then there is no Pay Equity adjustment to be paid.

The acting premium was in effect from September 1, 1986, to April 30, 1989.

Example

Employee's substantive position: CR-04
Acting premium (code 238) from March 1, 1989 to April 30, 1989
Employee reverts to CR-04 effective May 1, 1989
Acting CR-05 (code 002) from June 1, 1989 to August 31, 1989
Employee reverts to CR-04 effective September 1, 1989
Acting AS-01 (code 002) from September 1, 1990 to October 31, 1990

Pay Equity adjustment paid at the CR-04 rate up to and including May 31, 1989
Pay Equity adjustment paid at the CR-05 rate from June 1, 1989 to August 31, 1989
Pay Equity adjustment paid at the CR-04 rate from September 1, 1989 to August 31, 1990
No entitlement to the Pay Equity adjustment from September 1, 1990 to October 31, 1990
Pay Equity adjustment paid at the CR-04 rate from November 1, 1990 to July 28, 1998


3.3. Pay Equity Adjustments

Different types of retroactive Pay Equity adjustments have been included in the Pay Equity Agreement as listed below. These retroactive Pay Equity adjustments must be identifiable and will automatically be charged against a special code vote as identified by TBS.

The adjustments are described in detail in the following sections:

  • Section 3.3.1 - Retroactive Pay Equity Adjustment - From March 8, 1985 to July 28, 1998
  • Section 3.3.2 - Revised Basic Salary and Stopping Ongoing Equalization Allowance - Effective July 29, 1998
  • Section 3.3.3 - Separation Benefit Adjustment - From March 8, 1985 to date
  • Section 3.3.4 - 5% Lump Sum Payment in Lieu - From March 8, 1985 to March 31, 1994
  • Section 3.3.5 - Interest - Entire retroactive period

A detailed description of the reporting requirements for each of these entitlements can be found in section 5.

3.3.1. Retroactive Pay Equity Adjustment

The retroactive Pay Equity adjustments included in this agreement have been divided into two types of payments.

The retroactive Pay Equity adjustment that covers the period from March 8, 1985, to March 31, 1994, will be subject to superannuation, if applicable, but is not considered to form part of the rate of pay.

The retroactive Pay Equity adjustment that covers the period from April 1, 1994, to July 28, 1998, inclusive, is subject to superannuation, if applicable, and is considered to form part of the rate of pay for administration purposes only for calculation of promotion, acting pay and the extra duty. Adjustments are limited to these types of transactions. The following is a list of the extra duty codes affected:

  • 009 Call in Pay
  • 040 Overtime Accumulated
  • 043 Premium Pay for Work on a Holiday
  • 049 Additional Hours Worked - Part-time Employees
  • 050 Reporting Pay
  • 064 Standby - 1st rate
  • 065 Standby - 2nd rate
  • 072 Travel on a Day of Rest
  • 089 Travel - Working Day
  • 092 Premium for Lieu Day
  • 147 Compensatory Leave - Adjusted Hours
  • 260 Overtime - Regular Working Day
  • 261 Overtime - First Day of Rest
  • 262 Overtime - Second or subsequent Day of Rest
  • 263 Overtime - Statutory Holiday
  • 268 Overtime while on Training
  • 290 Overtime - Other Rate

Departments will be required to recalculate promotions, acting pay and the codes identified above where the "Effective from Date" is April 1, 1994, or later. The reporting requirements for these transactions can be found in section 5.1.

Rates

The Pay Equity adjustment amounts are attached in Appendix A. The amounts listed for 1985 are the amounts that apply to the period from March 8, 1985, to March 31, 1986, and the amounts listed for 1998 are the amounts that apply to the period from April 1, 1998, to July 28, 1998.

3.3.2. Changes to Ongoing Basic Pay

The revision to the Ongoing basic rate of pay is tentatively scheduled to occur for employees in one of the affected groups for Pay Period (PP) 13/00 (regular pay dated June 21, 2000). The PWGSC administration rates used for processing are attached in Appendix B.

The ongoing Equalization Allowance (code 144) that is currently paid with the regular pay for employees in the CR, ST and EU groups will also be automatically stopped in the same pay period.

The basic rate of pay will be amended effective July 29, 1998 to include the Pay Equity adjustment amount for employees in one of the affected groups. Effective June 20, 1999 the ongoing Equalization Allowance will be stopped for the CR, ST and EU groups and rolled into the basic rates of pay.

The retroactive period will automatically be adjusted by the RPS from the effective date of the change to the basic rate of pay to the end of the pay period prior to the pay period in which the change is reflected on the regular pay.

Departments will be required to recalculate all salary based transactions that have been reported with an effective date of July 29, 1998, or later using the amended rates of pay. Reporting requirements can be found in section 5.2.

3.3.3. Separation Benefits

Employees who were SOS prior to July 29, 1998, are entitled to a Separation Benefit adjustment as specified in the Pay Equity Agreement. The agreement lists the number of weeks of the adjustment to be paid for separation benefits based on the reason for SOS and have been included in Appendix C. It must be noted that if the employee was SOS prior to July 29, 1998, and the SOS reason is not listed in Appendix C then adjustments are not to be paid.

Severance payments and termination allowances paid to former employees that were SOS effective July 29, 1998, or later must be recalculated using the amended rates and transactions and must be reported by departments for the additional amounts owing. Reporting requirements for these transactions can be found in section 5.3.

3.3.4. 5% Lump Sum Payment in Lieu

The agreement includes a 5% Lump Sum Payment in Lieu that is to be calculated and paid on all Pay Equity adjustment amounts owing including Separation Benefits for the retroactive period from March 8, 1985, to March 31, 1994. This lump sum is in lieu of the recalculation of all salary based entitlements during this period.

The 5% will automatically be calculated by the system on every retroactive Pay Equity adjustment processed using the new codes where the effective to date is prior to April 1, 1994. Additional details for this payment can be found in section 5.4.

3.3.5. Interest

The Pay Equity Agreement includes a formula for the calculation and payment of interest on all of the Pay Equity retroactive amounts owing including Separation Benefits, adjustments resulting from salary recalculation and the 5% Lump Sum in Lieu. Additional details on this payment can be found in section 5.5.

It is important to note that although the interest payment is not taxed at source it must be reported as interest income for the year in which it is received.

5.1. Retroactive Pay Equity Adjustment

Employees are to be paid the entitlement for the retroactive period from March 8, 1985, to July 28, 1998, where their actual classification reflects service in one of the affected groups, either acting or substantive (see section 3.3.2).

These payments will be subject to all statutory deductions (Income Tax, Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan and Employment Insurance) and pensionable where the employee has been identified as a contributor.

If the account is inactive and a Return of Contributions was paid in the past, pension contributions will not be withheld from the retroactive Pay Equity adjustment amounts payable. If the former employee has since returned to work and is now a contributor, the pension contributions will be collected from the entire adjustment amount. Departments will be required to request, in writing, That the Pay Office (PO) refund the overdeductions.

Pension contributions for the period prior to December 26, 1996, will be calculated at a rate of 4.7%. Deficiencies for periods of LWOP prior to December 26, 1996 will be calculated and recovered at a single rate of 4.7% (code 202) and at a double rate of 9.4% (code 270) based on the LWOP reason codes.

The retroactive Pay Equity adjustment for the period from March 8, 1985, to July 28, 1998, inclusive will be reported using the following new entitlement codes:

  • 267 Pay Equity Adjustment for Retroactivity
  • 269 Pay Equity Adjustment for Retroactivity - Non Pensionable

5.1.1. Automated Pay Equity Adjustments

The automated Pay Equity adjustments for accounts with 7B and/or 7C service that will be paid for the period from April 1, 1989, to July 28, 1998, inclusive, split by fiscal and calendar year will be calculated by the RPS based on the information found on the Salary Service History (SSH) records for the employees.

If the information found on the SSH is not correct adjustments may be required, and should be input using a PAC 18A on the electronic spreadsheet (Excel or Lotus) or an ENA screen (on-line). If the SSH is correct and there is an overpayment, departments can use the new PAC 88 (batch) or the new OVD screen (on-line) to have the overpayment collected from a future Pay Equity adjustment payment. All adjustments must be made using the new entitlement codes created for the implementation of this agreement.

If duplicate accounts exist on the SSH for one employee for the same period where only one active RPS account exists, two cheques covering the same retroactive period will be produced, one under each department. One of these cheques must be returned and canceled.

5.1.2. Departmental Input

Pro formas listing all periods that must be reported by departments were produced on January 14, 2000, for reference purposes only. These periods of service are for all accounts from March 8, 1985, to March 31, 1989, and for all 7A service from March 8, 1985 to July 28, 1998. The transactions must be split for a change in rate and for fiscal year only. Departments are not required to break for Pay Period calendar years as this will be done automatically by the system for CCRA and Revenu Québec reporting purposes.

Departments will be required to control the verification and authorization of all additional input to ensure processing the supplementary transactions are processed as a group.

For example, an employee has submitted a tax waiver and has LWOP deficiencies that have to be recovered. In this instance, the department must ensure that the ENC 395/396 (tax waiver) is entered using the approved input method as well as the EAJ 202/270 (LWOP deficiencies). All of these transactions must be verified, authorized and processed in the same update as the Pay Equity adjustment transactions that have been reported for this employee for the period from March 8, 1985, to March 31, 1989.

Instructions on the processing of the TBS approved Lotus and Excel applications will follow in a subsequent Compensation Directive.

Periods of LWOP deficiencies are to be input using a PAC 71 (batch) or an EAJ screen (on-line). Departments are to ensure that deficiencies are collected from the Pay Equity adjustment. Pension contributions will be calculated at the rate identified for the calendar year in which the end date of the retroactivity falls.

If the LWOP period is prior to December 26, 1996, departments must use indicator "PE" in Field 21 of the Pay Action Code (PAC) 71 or in the PP field on the EAJ screen. If the LWOP period is for calendar year 1997, "Y3" must be entered in the PP field; for calendar year 1998, "Y2" must be entered in the PP field; and for calendar year 1999 "Y1" must be entered in the PP field.

In order to accommodate the large number of transactions anticipated for the processing of the payments, the number of lines that can be entered by departments for one account for processing in one update has been increased to 170 including the lines that will be system generated for the payment of the 5% Lump Sum in Lieu.

If the new maximum of 170 lines per account per update is exceeded the payment will reject to the Pay Office for further action which will cause a delay in the payment. Subsequently, the retroactivity lines will be reentered by the Pay Office in different updates and more than one cheque will be issued for the period reported.

For all part-time accounts the retroactivity should be reported in hours by the department. The RPS field restrictions will not permit more than 999.99 hours per line.

Departments are to use the new entitlement codes created for the implementation of this agreement. Entitlements to the Pay Equity adjustments are to be reported using these new codes with an 18C or an 18A transaction (using one of the approved methods of input) or an ENC or an ENA screen (on-line).

In order to correctly calculate the retroactive entitlement for part-time accounts, the "WW", Standard Work Week (SWW), Assigned Work Week (AWW) and the Non Standard Work Week Indicator (NSWW) must be entered in Field 71, left justified, for all transactions reported by the department.

Example:

Employee working 22.5 hours per week

F71 would show: WW375022501

Departments will be required to create a Taken on Strength (TOS) transaction, using employee type " X ", and an SOS transaction effective the same date using the override indicator for the automation, for accounts that were identified on the "No Master Account" Report that was produced on January 14, 2000. Departments should ensure that the currently existing Personal Record Identifier (PRI) found on the Central Index (CI) for these accounts is used for these actions. Each action must be processed in different updates but in the same pay period to ensure that no regular pay cheque is produced prior to the Pay Equity adjustment processing.

If departments are required to report a TOS and an SOS transaction to create an account in the RPS, the current accounts coding for the department is to be used. Pay Equity adjustment codes have been programmed to automatically charge a special account for the cost of implementing this agreement.


5.1.3. Dual Employment

Where dual employment is identified, the substantive department will be required to communicate with the secondary department to determine the employee's entitlement according to the criteria listed in section 3.2 above. If the employee has since returned to work with the substantive department and was a contributor with the secondary department, a refund of superannuation may be required since this will be automatically charged on the period of LWOP with the substantive department as well. The substantive department will be responsible for advising the Pay Office, in writing, of any refund of superannuation that may be required.

5.1.4. Recalculation

Departments will be responsible for reporting adjustments that may be necessary as a result of the recalculation of acting, promotion or extra-duty pay with an "Effective From" date of April 1, 1994. These transactions are not to be reported until the departments have been advised via broadcast message that the new rates of pay have been updated to the Pay Rates Control File. This is currently scheduled for May 29, 2000.

The retroactive adjustments resulting from the recalculation of promotion, acting or the extra-duty codes identified in Section 3.3.1 from April 1, 1994, to July 28, 1998, should be reported using the following new entitlement codes as of May 29, 2000.

  • 271 Pay Equity Salary Adjustment
  • 272 Pay Equity Salary Adjustment - Non Pensionable
  • 273 Pay Equity Overtime Adjustment

The new basic rates of pay resulting from the recalculations can only be submitted after the basic rates of pay have been amended to include the Pay Equity adjustment amounts and the ongoing Equalization Allowance (blended rates of pay) have been added to the Pay Rates Control File. The update to the Pay Rates Control file and the basic salary is currently scheduled for PP 13/00.

The following extra-duty codes are the only ones to be recalculated for the period from April 1, 1994, to July 28, 1998:

  • 009 Call in Pay
  • 040 Overtime Accumulated
  • 043 Premium Pay for Work on a Holiday
  • 049 Additional Hours Worked - Part-time Employees
  • 050 Reporting Pay
  • 064 Standby - 1st rate
  • 065 Standby - 2nd rate
  • 072 Travel on a Day of Rest
  • 089 Travel - Working Day
  • 092 Premium for Lieu Day
  • 147 Compensatory Leave - Adjusted Hours
  • 260 Overtime - Regular Working Day
  • 261 Overtime - First Day of Rest
  • 262 Overtime - Second or subsequent Day of Rest
  • 263 Overtime - Statutory Holiday
  • 268 Overtime while on Training
  • 290 Overtime - Other Rate

Departments will be responsible for recalculating all salary based transactions that have occurred with an "Effective From" date of July 29, 1998, or later for employees in one of the affected groups. The retroactive entitlement adjustments must be reported as a closed period using the new codes created for the Pay Equity Agreement whereas the ongoing lines are to be reported using the original codes and an "Effective From" date of the start of the current pay period.

Changes to the ongoing rate of pay resulting from recalculations are to be reported using a PAC 09 (batch) transaction or an REV screen (on-line) with an "Effective From" date of the start of the current pay period. Retroactive basic pay adjustments are to be reported using a PAC 18A transaction (batch) or an ENA screen (on-line) with a closed period using the new codes. Departments will be advised via broadcast message once the date for input has been confirmed.

Salary protection rules may apply to certain employees if, upon recalculation of reclassification actions, effective April 1, 1994 or later, the employees'salary prior to the recalculation exceeds the maximum of the new group and level.

Example:

  • CR-06 reclassified to AS-02 effective September 1, 1998
  • CR-06 blended salary equals to $44102
  • AS-02 maximum salary equals to $41814

The employee is salary protected at the CR-06 level. This is to be reported along with the retroactive adjustment from September 1, 1998, to the end of the pay period prior to the processing of the salary protection transaction.

Field 71 must also be completed as per Section 5.1.2 when reporting a PAC 18A (approved input method) or an ENA screen (on-line) with entitlement codes 271 or 272 for a closed period. A PAC 09 (batch) or an REV screen (on-line) open period is to be used to report changes to the current basic pay line. Pay Equity extra-duty pay adjustments must be reported using a DSS-MAS 2547, Extra-Duty Pay Input Form or a PWGSC-TPSGC 2548, Extra-Duty Pay Pro Forma (batch) or an XDP screen (on-line) following the same input requirements as regular extra-duty pay reporting and the adjustment rate amount using code 273.

These codes are also to be used to report adjustments that may be required as a result of the recalculation of any of the salary based transactions that have occurred from July 29, 1998, to PP 13/00, the pay period in which the basic rate of pay is revised. These adjustments can be reported as of May 29, 2000.


5.2. Ongoing Equalization Allowance and Basic Pay

The ongoing Equalization Allowance for the affected groups will be stopped in PP 13/00 and the SSH for these employees will be adjusted to remove the code 144 lines from the pay history from June 20, 1999, to date.

The basic salary adjustments for the period from July 29, 1998, to the end of the pay period prior to the regular pay adjustment will be paid using the following new entitlement codes:

  • 277 Pay Equity Basic Pay Adjustment
  • 278 Pay Equity Basic Pay Adjustment - Non Pensionable

The retroactive period from July 29, 1998, to the end of the pay period prior to the change to the basic rate of pay will be automated and will reflect the new entitlement codes listed above. The automated retroactivity will be done for all pay cycles (7A, 7B, 7C) using the revision programs and will be based on the current SSH records for all employees.

The basic rate of pay will be adjusted in PP 13/00 for all employees in the affected groups. The "Effective From" date of the changes to the rate of pay will be July 29, 1998, and will include the Pay Equity adjustment amounts specified in the agreement.

The blended rates of pay, which include the Pay Equity adjustment amounts and the ongoing Equalization Allowance amounts where applicable, will be effective on different dates based on the current collective agreement for each group. The "Effective From" date for the various groups for the blended rates is as follows:

  • "Effective From" date for the CR, ST. and EU Groups: June 20, 1999
  • "Effective From" date for the LS Group: March 4, 1999
  • "Effective From" date for the DA-CON Group: August 29, 1998
  • "Effective From" date for the HS Group: August 5, 1998 and February 4, 1999

5.2.1. Death Benefit, Disability Insurance and Long Term Disability (DB, DI, LTD)

The Pay Equity blended salaries are to be used, as of February 1, 2000 when reporting a current DI/LTD claim.

DB, DI and LTD monthly premiums are to be calculated on the revised rate of pay including the Pay Equity adjustment as of December 1999. Since the revised rates of pay will not be updated for December 1999, arrears adjustments will need to be calculated and recovered for the months missed until the regular pay is adjusted.

| Departments are required to calculate the additional premium owing and recover the arrears. The arrears can be recovered from a supplementary payment using a PAC 77 (batch) or a TED screen (on-line) or from a regular pay using a PAC 16C closed period (batch) or a DEC screen (on-line).

Example:

DB contributions are calculated as follows:
[on annual salary rounded up to the nearest $ 1,000] x 2 x 0.0015 (i.e. .015%)

CR-04 salary as of December 1999: $ 32,892
$ 32,892 + $994 = $ 33,886; $ 34,000 x 2 = $ 68,000; $ 68,000 x 0.0015 =$10.20

CR-04 salary should have been = $ 35,475
$ 36,000 x 2 = $ 72,000; $ 72,000 x 0.0015 = $10.80

Difference of $0.60 per month from December 1999 to May 2000
$0.60 x 6 months = $3.60

5.3. Separation Benefits

All Separation Benefit (severance payment and termination allowance) adjustments, both the number of weeks based on the table for SOS prior to July 29, 1998, and the number of weeks for SOS effective July 29, 1998, or after, are to be reported using the following new entitlement codes:

  • 274 Pay Equity Separation Benefits - Eligible
  • 243 Pay Equity Separation Benefits - Non Eligible

Separation benefit adjustments are to be reported using a PAC 71 (batch) or a TEC screen (on-line) and the above mentioned codes for inactive accounts. The dates reported on the original input are to be reflected on the adjustment input as well. Departments are to ensure that Tax Waivers that are to be applied to these payments are processed in the same update.


5.4. 5% Lump Sum in Lieu

Pension contributions will not be calculated on this payment and it will not be reflected on the SSH for the employees. The RPS will automatically calculate the amount and create a transaction for the 5% Lump Sum in Lieu for all transactions, including overpayments, that reflect the new Pay Equity adjustment codes with an "Effective To" date prior to April 1, 1994. This entitlement will be paid using the new code 264 - 5% Lump Sum in Lieu.

Departmental reporting will not be required. The system will automatically match all Pay Equity transactions with an "Effective To" date prior to April 1, 1994, and create a transaction for the 5% using identical dates. This entitlement is subject to Federal and Provincial Income Tax, Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan and Employment Insurance but is not superannuable.

5.5. Interest

Currently the interest is tentatively scheduled for processing in November 2000. Further instructions on this process will be published in a subsequent Compensation Directive as details are confirmed. The interest will be paid using the new code 246 - Pay Equity Interest.

5.6. Tax Waivers

CCRA and Revenu Québec have authorized the use of the Tax Waiver form published by TBS. This form can be used by active and inactive employees for an amount up to $ 10,000 if the employees have the available RRSP room. Employees are to complete this form which will then be retained by departments.

This form can be found at the following addresses:

Employees are to be advised that the interest portion of the Pay Equity Agreement is not taxed at source. An amount equal to the interest portion of the adjustment can also be deposited into an RRSP without a Tax Waiver. If an amount greater than the interest portion of the payment plus $ 10,000 is to be deposited into an RRSP, employees, who have the eligible room, can apply to CCRA for the total amount which will include the initial $ 10,000 that is to be deposited into an RRSP but exclude the interest.

Example:  

Pay Equity adjustment = $ 13,500 Available RRSP room = $ 25,000

Separation Benefit adjustment + $ 10,600  

Interest estimate + 4,125  

Total Pay Equity adjustments = $ 28,225  

Tax waiver for $ 10,000.00 + Interest $ 4,125 = $ 14,125

The available RRSP room of $ 25,000 is not reached. If the employee wishes to transfer more than $ 10,000 then he can apply to CCRA for a tax waiver for a total of up to $ 20,875 ($25000 - $ 4,125) and deposit this amount into an RRSP.

Tax Waivers will be reported using a PAC 18C (approved input method) or an ENC screen (on-line) or a TEC screen (on-line) if applied to the Separation Benefit adjustment, with entitlement code 395 for Federal tax waiver amount and code 396 for Québec tax waiver amount.

Tax Waivers specifying that they are to be applied to a Pay Equity adjustment can only be used for this purpose. If the transaction fails to process with a specific update it can be re-entered for processing with another Pay Equity adjustment. The waiver cannot be applied to any other type of payment.

5.7 Garnishments and Tax Arrears

Active garnishments can be withheld from the Pay Equity adjustments, including interest, for active employees only. However, there is no requirement to garnish retroactive Pay Equity payments in cases where regular payments being made to the court meet the obligation. Retroactive Pay Equity adjustments made to former employees are not garnishable. Where the garnishment is to be applied, it should be entered using a PAC 77 (batch) or an SDD screen (on line) by the department who should ensure that the input processes in the same scheduled update as the payment. This will be addressed further in an Information Bulletin that will be published by Treasury Board Secretariat.

Tax arrears may be withheld from any or all of the retroactive Pay Equity adjustment payments based on the details of the original agreement. Further details on the procedures for tax arrears will be published once they are confirmed.


5.8. Death Benefit Payments

Death Benefit payments for accounts that are SOS "Death in Service" effective December 1, 1999, or after are to be paid at the revised rate of pay which includes the annual Pay Equity adjustment amount specified for 1998. Departments are to follow existing procedures for the reporting of a Death Benefit payment or adjustment.

5.9. Defunct Department

For employees who were SOS during the retroactive period with a dissolved department, cheques will be produced under the defunct department's acronym and sent to the responsible department as identified by TBS. A list of the defunct departments and the responsible organizations can be found at the following addresses:

Since security is no longer in place for defunct departments, it should be noted that on-line access will not be available for these accounts until the responsible department requests to re-activate the acronym and the paylists.

5.10. Transfers to Separate Employers/Agencies

Where an employee was transferred to an organization or agency outside of PSSRA 1.1 using Transfer in and Transfer out transactions, the Treasury Board department personnel under PSSRA 1.1 will receive a reject message U63 (SOS Account Has Transfer Information). For these cases the department will be required to input a TOS transaction using employee type "X" and an SOS transaction in different updates but in the same pay period.

Once these transactions have processed the Treasury Board department personnel will be required to re-input the rejected transactions.

Where the transfer process was accomplished with a TOS and SOS, the payment will be issued under the TBS department listed under PSSRA 1.1.

5.10.1. Exceptions - CCRA and Parks Canada

Since the above noted became agencies outside PSSRA 1.1 after July 29, 1998, the employees are to be considered employed under PSSRA 1.1 and the Pay Equity Agreement applies to them as well. In these instances, the Pay Equity adjustments owing from the effective date of becoming an agency or the date the Bargaining Unit Designator (BUD) codes were changed may not be automatically produced at the same time as other TBS employees. Further details will be included in a subsequent Compensation Directive.

5.11. Death in Service

Pay Equity adjustments owing to former employees whose SOS reason code is "17 - Death in Service" will result in a message being produced for the Pay Office to action manually. The Pay Office is to refer to Compensation Directive 1989-089 (033) dated June 14, 1989, for procedures. If an employee was SOS for another reason but has since died and the date of death is prior to November 16, 1999, the Pay Office should also follow the instructions in the above mentioned directive and ensure that a Statement of Earnings (T4, Relevé 1) is not produced in any of these instances.


6. MESSAGES

The following new messages have been created in the RPS for the implementation of the Pay Equity Agreement. These messages identify accounts where automation was done but where possible adjustments may be required.

  • WS8 - "LWOP on S/S - Verify Pmt - Adjt may be req'd"

    This message will be produced and sent to departments for part-time accounts where a period of LWOP is found on the SSH and the "Effective From" date and/or the "Effective To" date of the retroactivity is during the LWOP period.

    Departments will be required to verify the payment produced for this period to ensure accuracy and report any adjustments that may be required.
  • WC9 --"AWW < SWW - Verify Pmt - Adjt may be req'd"

    This message will be produced and sent to departments for employees where the AWW is less than the SWW and the "Effective From" date is not equal to the pay period start date or less than February 1, 1992; or where the "Effective To" date is not equal to the pay period end date or February 1, 1992.
  • NA8--"Death in Service - Payment must be Handled Manually"

    This message will be produced and sent to the PO for transactions that have been reported where the account is SOS with a reason code "17".

    The Pay Office will be required to compare the SOS effective date with the agreement date (November 16, 1999) to determine if the Pay Equity adjustment is to be considered as earnings for the former employee and to ensure that the payment is made payable to the "Estate".
  • WC8 -- "NSWW = 3, Verify Pmt - Adjt may be req'd"

    This message will be produced and sent to the department for all accounts where the NSWW indicator is 3.

    Departments will be required to verify the accuracy of the payment that has been produced and report any adjustment that may be required.
  • N86 --Change Pension Status in Retro Period - Poss. Adj. To Pension Contr. Req'd

    This message will be produced and sent to the Pay Office for employees who have completed 35 years service during the retroactive period.

    The Pay Office will be required to collect the superannuation arrears that will be owing from the "Effective From" date of the start of the Pay Equity adjustment to the "Effective From" date of the completion of the 35 years of service. Superannuation will be automatically collected at 1% from the entire Pay Equity adjustment amount paid.

7. SUPERANNUATION

This section describes only some of the impact that this Pay Equity Agreement will have on Superannuation and the various benefits. Additional information will be published in a subsequent Compensation Directive.

7.1. Contribution Rates

Pension contributions will be collected at the rate identified for the year stated in the effective to date of the retroactive period. The rates are as follows:

  • 1985 to 1996 - 4.7%
  • 1997 - 4.5%
  • 1998 - 4.3%
  • 1999 - 4.0%
  • 2000 - 4.0%

The rates specified above for the years 1997 to date are the rates that will be applied up to the yearly maximum pensionable earnings for the applicable period.

7.2. Pension Deficiencies

Pension deficiencies are to be collected using a PAC 71 (batch) or an EAJ screen (on-line) and code 202 (single rate) or code 270 (double rate). For deficiencies automatically collected by the system, the rate will be determined based on the LWOP reason code identified on the SSH record and the "Effective To" date of the LWOP period. Deficiencies will not be collected for LWOP reason code K (maternity) unless the LWOP period exceeds 17 weeks from the "Effective From" date of the T-SOS as per the criteria listed in section 3.2.1. Any adjustments that may be required to the deficiencies automatically collected will be done by the Pay Office.

7.3. Elections

Revised rates of pay are to be used for normal and late elections when certifying the salary rates on the "Election Form for Elective Pensionable Service" (PWGSC-TPSGC 2006) when the salary rate to be used is the rate authorized on or after November 16, 1999. As a result of this, amendments may be received for the amount of the monthly deductions.

If employees want to apply part or all of their Pay Equity adjustment to a prior election they are to contact Superannuation Directorate for a revised estimate of the balance owing. They will then be required to pay the balance owing by personal cheque. Deductions for payments of elections from the Pay Equity adjustments cannot be accepted.


7.4. Return of Contributions (ROC)

If an ROC was paid to a former employee and that employee has since returned to work and is a contributor, then pension contributions will be withheld from the entire Pay Equity adjustment. A message will be sent to the department who will advise the Pay Office that a refund of superannuation is required for the pension contributions collected from the Pay Equity adjustment for the period prior to the original SOS date.

7.5. Pension Benefit Division Act (PBDA)

Recalculations of PBDA are not to be done as a result of this Pay Equity Agreement.

8. INQUIRIES
