Event based allowances

Event based allowances are allowances that have a defined list of criteria that must be met before an employee becomes eligible for payment (ie. you cannot pay an event based allowance in advance for work that will occur in the future).

The payment rate of an event based allowance is stated in the appropriate Collective Agreement and is generally set as a specific rate for each occurrence that has generated the allowance.
