Wage Scales

Martide's Wage Scales let you add different rates of pay for the ranks on each of your vessels. 

Log into Martide and click on Settings under your profile icon and then on Wage Scales:

The Wage Scales page looks like this:

Here you can:

• See your Wage Scales, the vessels they relate to and the currency.
• Add a new Wage Scale.
• Edit a Wage Scale by clicking the pen icon next to it.
• Delete a Wage Scale by clicking the trash can next to it.
• Copy a Wage Scale by clicking the documents icon next to it - more on this below.
• Filter your Wage Scales by clicking the blue funnel icon. This will open a side panel of filters so you can find what you're looking for more easily.

How to add a new Wage Scale

Click the Add Wage Scale button. You will go to this page:

Here you can:

• Enter the name of the Wage Scale.
• Select the vessel or vessels that this Wage Scale applies to.
• Select the currency.
• Add notes about that Wage Scale.
• Add the ranks on that vessel or vessels.
• Add the earnings types you want to include. See here for more about Earning Types. 
• Add the supplementary earning types you want to include. 

We will create a new Wage Scale:

Now click the Add Ranks button and you will see this:

Check the box next to the ranks you want to include and they will be added to the Ranks section. For example:

Click the Add Earning Types button. You will see this pop-up box:

You will see the Earning Types you have added to Martide. Check the box next to the ones you want to add to this Wage Scale and click Save. For example:

Supplementary Earning Types are added the same way. You can add more ranks and earning/supplementary earning types at any time.

Note: you will first need to add your supplementary earning types in Settings > Payroll > Supplementary Earning Types.

Click Save when you're finished.  

Now you need to enter amounts. Go back to Ranks and click the pen icon next to a rank: 

We clicked on Master and we now see this:

Here you can:

• See the internal code that your company wants to use as reference for this Wage Scale level.
• See the Earning Types you added and their combined total.
• Add levels for this Wage Scale.

How to add Wage Scale levels

Click the Add Levels button at the top. You will see this pop-up box:

Enter the number of levels you want for your Master Wage Scale in the box and click Add. This lets you pay employees in the same rank differently. We added two levels:

Click Save and your levels will be saved under that rank and your Wage Scale will appear on the main page.

How to copy a Wage Scale

The copy feature is useful if you use the same, or similar, Wage Scales for some of your vessels. It means you don’t have to add all the information for ranks, earning types and levels again.

To copy a Wage Scale click the two documents next to the Wage Scale you want to copy:

You will see this pop-up box:

Enter the name of your NEW Wage Scale, click Save and you will go to a COPY of the original Wage Scale .

All the info from the original Wage Scale is copied over but the name has changed to whatever you called it.  Add the vessel(s) you are creating this Wage Scale for and make any changes if you need to.

Click Save and your copied Wage Scale will show on the main page.
