About this result
80% is illustrative. Rules differ by entity, canton, absence reason and duration. Does not determine payer, 100% entitlement, base, tax, minimum wage or reimbursement. Entered floors/caps are prorated by hours here and must match your decision.
Full disclaimerHow is sick leave pay calculated?
The calculator multiplies the confirmed monthly base by the compensation percentage, applies any minimum or maximum you enter and prorates the result by the share of sick leave hours in the month. For example, a 1,500 KM base at 80% gives 1,200 KM a month, and 40 of 174 hours give 275.86 KM. The 80% is only an example, because the rules differ by entity, canton, reason and length of absence. Enter the figures from your payroll record or decision.
