How it is calculated
Sick pay = average daily earnings × sick days × payment percentage ÷ 100. The payment percentage is the share of average earnings actually paid out, and it's usually the part that depends on an employee's insurance tenure.
The specific tenure thresholds and matching percentages are a rule of a specific country, not a universal standard — they can change and differ between jurisdictions, so the percentage here is an editable field rather than a built-in table. Use whatever percentage actually applies to you under current rules.
Average daily earnings for sick pay, like for vacation pay, is usually computed over a set reference period (not simply the salary on the date of illness) — check that against your local rules too if you don't already have a ready figure.
