Contract Elements (Infotype 0016) 

In the Contract Elements infotype (0016), you can store data related to the employee’s employment contract.

Contractual Regulations

With the Contract type field, you can subdivide contracts of employment in accordance with the planned duration of the work relationship and the employee’s legal status.

You can or must also record the following information here:

·        For temporary work relationships, you must enter the contract’s expiry date (valid until).

·        You can set the Sideline Job indicator if the employee is authorized to have a sideline job.

·        You can set the Comp. Clause indicator, if the employee’s contract contains a corresponding provision. The non-competition clause refers to the time after termination of employment. It defines any job restrictions that may be imposed on the employee and how these are compensated by the enterprise.

Payment Period from Beginning of Illness

The Continued pay and the Sick pay supplement periods are used for certain absences in the Absences infotype (2001). The default values for both periods are defined in Customizing and can be overwritten here.

The special rule enables you to control different continued pay and sick pay supplement periods in the Collective Agreement for the Public Sector (BAT – Germany).

Periods

Here you store all periods relevant for labor legislation and the employee’s contract:

·        Probation period length

·        Notice periods for employer and employee

·        Date on which the work permit expires

Entry

You can save an entry date in the Initial entry field that is different than the contract’s start date and information on the corporation to which the employee belongs.

 

When you create a record for the Contract Elements infotype (0016) for the first time, the system suggests default values for the following fields:

·         Contract type

·         Continued pay

·         Sick pay

·         Probation period

·         Notice period for ER

·         Notice period for EE

The default values are determined by the entries for the company code, personnel area, employee group and employee subgroup in the Organizational Assignment infotype (0001).
