What is Work Basis Pay?

If an employee earns wages based on the amount of work they did, it is known as Work Basis Pay. If you hire your employees on project-based payment, then this will help you in the payroll process. 

To add work basis pay, you must first add Category, Item and Rate per quantity. Here are these:

Category

You can define the work category here. For example, if you have a shoe manufacturing unit, you can enter Shoe as a category.

Item

The item is a job being carried out in a category. For example, you can add a Sole as an Item if you are paying for stitching a sole per shoe in your manufacturing unit.
