Absence Type
Absences are times when employees are not at work. Employees are absent if their planned
working time, as stipulated in their work schedules, is not fully worked. The Absence Infotype is
where some Absence Types are recorded for an employee such as Leaves, e.g is the
absence type WCB-Advance 75% Top Up 10%.
CAT2
Cross Application Time Sheet (CATS) is a computerized tool used to perform the
entry of time attendance and absence data. CAT2 is the transaction code used to
access the Time Sheet.
Easeback
Easeback is the process of “easing” employees back to work (not their normal full time
work schedule) from respective Leaves of Absence
under Workers’ Compensation, Injury on Duty, Long Term Disability,
Weekly Indemnity AVRSB or Sick Leave.
Injury on Duty (NSTU)
Injury on Duty results if a teacher has an accident while performing his/her duties, which must
be approved by the School Board or its representative. The teacher, on application to the School Board,
shall be placed on leave with full salary until the teacher is medically certified able to continue teaching.
WCB Leave (non-NSTU)
If an employee is injured at work and must miss work due to the accident,
the employee is placed on a leave of absence with a reason of “Work Accident – paid (WCB)”.

9. Leave of Absence – WCB or Injury on Duty
If an employee is injured at work and must be absent due to an
Injury, the employee is placed on a Leave of Absence
using the first day of the injury as the start date.
The Reason code used :
Work Accident Paid, or

Easeback – Partial Return
Easeback is the process of “easing” employees back to work (not their normal full time work schedule) from
respective Leaves of Absence under Workers’ Compensation, Injury on Duty, Long Term Disability,
Weekly Indemnity AVRSB or Sick Leave.
Partial Easeback is where an employee may come back to their normal work schedule on a parttime basis. They
will be paid for the hours they work by the school board and the remaining hours are paid by the same manner as they
where when the employee was on the leave fulltime. For example, if the employee was on the Leave because of WCB
injury then WCB would pay the hours not worked by the employee.
End of Easeback is the process of either returning to work fulltime or go back on the leave fulltime.

Depending on your current business process:
Employee is placed on WCB immediately, if the employee does not qualify, the LOA Action for WCB must be deleted. Time must be entered in CATS retroactively using the employees sick leave (if available) or unpaid leave.
OR…
Employee is placed on sick leave while awaiting WCB approval. If the employee qualifies, then the employee’s sick leave must be removed from CATS and he/she must be placed on WCB retroactively.

The Absence Type(s) used to create the WCB leave are a combination of the following:
The following information is required when running this action:
Case number
Description of the accident
The date the accident was reported
The date of illness (absence)
You can speak to IT0014, WT9229 Switch Claims On, but it currently is only being utilized by the Cape Breton school board.
When creating the absence on the employee, Create Recurring Payments/Deductions (IT0014),
Switch Claims On (WT9229), will default on the leave of absence being created. This provides the option of whether
or not to continue unpaid absence days at the regular rate or the smooth rate for the smooth employee.
To valuate the unpaid days at the regular/actual daily rate, enter 2 in the Number/Unit field
To valuate the unpaid days at the smooth rate, skip this infotype.

19. WCB Leave – Additional Absence Data
1st day of accident
For the From and To dates in the absence types, these are not created automatically
through the system, they must be entered manually
1st day of accident – WCB-First Day Accident will be the day the employee
was injured, this will be a paid day
2nd and 3rd days of injury (waiting period) – will be either paid through CAT2
(if employee is entitled to use sick quota) 0255 would not be created. If the ee is unpaid for these two days create 0255 – WCB-Next two days Acc
4th day of injury - will be the start of the WCB Advance and/or Top Up (if applicable to your board).
The end date on this absence will be as this will be delimited when the employee returns.
Once you have setup the absence types you can verify these absences through PA30, IT2001 Absences
2nd and 3rd day of accident (if applicable)
4th day of accident, until employee returns

20. WCB Top Up Adjustment (if applicable)
There may be a difference in payment between what the employee receives from the Board and what WCB pays to the Board. If this is the case, a WCB top up adjustment will have to be created through a recurring payment (IT0014)

Such leave shall not exceed two years from date of the injury
The statements noted below came directly from the NSTU Agreement.
Such leave shall not exceed two years from date of the injury. If the teacher is still unable to resume
the teaching duties which had been assigned the teacher shall be entitled to use the teacher’s sick leave.
Should an injured teacher return to work within the two year timeframe, the unused portion of this leave will

32. Module Objectives
At the end of this module participants will be able to:
Explain the Return from Leave of Absence Action
Explain Easeback Partial Return

33. Terms and Concepts
Easeback is the process of “easing” employees back to work from a leave of absence

34. WCB / Injury on Duty - Returning from Leave
When an employee is ready to return from a leave of absence due to a work accident the Return From Leave Action is processed (PA40)
The effective start date of the action is the first day the employee returns to work
The absence will be delimited from the original end date for the absence (9999/12/31) – it will delimit as of the employee’s return date
When the WCB LOA action is processed the absence type has an end date of 9999/12/31,
when the employee returns from the leave, the effective start date of the return action (i.e. 2006/10/05)
replaces the former end date of 9999/12/31 and delimits the absence on that effective date (2006/10/05).

35. WCB / Injury on Duty – Easeback Partial Return
If the employee returns to work on a limited basis, process an Easeback Partial Return Action
The original absence(s) will be delimited as of the day before the employee returns to work.
According to the proposed easeback agreement, absence hours/days must be entered in CAT2 using the original absence type
Easeback – Partial Return - Very Important: When an employee is back to work on Easeback –
Partial Return, the absence IT2001 is delimited; therefore, an absence type must be put against the
employee in CAT2 for the number of hours absent. The same absence code that was used for the
action will be used for the absence code when entering the absence in CAT2. The personnel actions
will reflect the reasons for Easeback – Partial Return, as stated above on the personnel action reasons.
On a working day the remaining hours not captured by the absence type will be used to
track the employees time at work.
For example, an employee on Easeback – Partial Return is deemed to be working a full day unless the
absence type is keyed in CAT2, so an employee working 3 hours of a 5 hour day would have an absence
type keyed for 2 hours.

36. WCB / Injury on Duty – End of Easeback
End of Easeback action is used when an employee ceases their easeback agreement and returns to a full time leave
The reasons for End of Easeback are:
Work Accident Paid
Work Accident Unpaid
Return from Leave of Absence - If the employee will be returning to their permanent schedule,
return from Leave of Absence will be used with a start date of the first day the employee returns to work.
Easeback – Partial Return - Very Important: When an employee is back to work on Easeback - Partial
Return, the absence IT2001 is delimited; therefore, an absence type must be put against the employee in CAT2
for the number of hours absent. The same absence code that was used for the action will be used for the
absence code when entering the absence in CAT2. The personnel actions will reflect the reasons for
Easeback – Partial Return, as stated above on the personnel action reasons. On a working day the
remaining hours not captured by the absence type will be used to track the employees time at work.
For example, an employee on Easeback – Partial Return is deemed to be working a full day unless the
absence type is keyed in CAT2, so an employee working 3 hours of a 5 hour day would have an absence
type keyed for 2 hours.
