We fall under the Timber Industry Award and we need to split out the Forest Work Allowance for their wages under STP2. This is classed as part of the All Purpose Allowances.
I can't find where this falls. Does it sit under Allowances Type OD (Allowance - Other) or Type KN (Allowance - Tasks) or somewhere else entirely?
Hey @BelindaR1976,
It will fit under the allowance code that best describes what the allowance is for.
e.g., cleaning, height, forklift, supervisor, higher duties, and remote will go under task allowance KN. There is a further breakdown on our website about when you should use allowance type KN.
If it doesn't fit under any of the allowance type KN descriptions, then you may have to use allowance type OD. If you use allowance type OD, you'll need to provide a description for the category of the expense.
We also have a STP phase 2 reporting guideline on our website that you may find useful.
