State Agencies Bulletin No. 101

Subject
Hazard Duty and Safety Incentive Reporting
Date Issued
June 4, 1999

Employees Affected:

Employees Eligible for Hazard Duty and Safety Incentive Payments

Background:

This is to advise agencies that OSC will no longer schedule Hazard Duty and Safety Incentive payments on a quarterly schedule.

Agencies may submit these payments based on their own schedule.

Agencies that, due to their timekeeping practices, want to continue payment on a quarterly basis may do so.

Hazard Pay and Safety Incentive are paid in TIME ENTRY using the following EARN CODES:

  • HZ1 - Hazard Pay - Straight Time
  • HZ2 - Hazard Pay - Overtime
  • SDS - Safety Dif - Straight Time
  • SDO - Safety Dif - Overtime

To recover or adjust Hazard Pay or Safety Dif payments previously made, a negative minus (-) must precede the number of hours for HZ1, HZ2 and SDO, or the number of units for SDS.

Questions regarding this bulletin may be directed to the Payroll Audit mailbox.

Questions concerning agency and/or title eligibility, etc., should be directed to your Agency Classification and Pay Analyst at the Department of Civil Service.
