The minimum wage gross-up calculation is applied to an employee's effective rate when they receive less than the minimum wage and the employer is expected to make up the difference. The calculation is normally applied to tipped employees as well as piecework-only employees; however, you can suppress it by employee in any open pay period.
Note: If you want to suppress the minimum wage gross-up calculation in all pay periods for a specific employee (tipped or piecework-pay only) or override the Federal/State minimum wage rate with an alternate rate (such as a locality or job function minimum wage rate), you can make the change by submitting a Change Employment Information or Job Change EAN. See the Related Help Topics.
