PJe Calc Training Course

Lesson 1 • Platform Overview and Purpose

Covers the system's origin, institutional context, and calculation scope. Establishes why PJe Calc exists and how it fits into labour dispute resolution workflows.

Lesson 2 • User Accounts and Access Levels

Explains authentication, role-based permissions, and profile configuration. Proper access setup prevents data errors and unauthorised modifications.

Lesson 3 • System Configuration Basics

Introduces default parameters, regional settings, and update management. Correct configuration ensures calculations align with applicable regulatory tables.

Lesson 1 • Monetary Correction Principles

Explains inflation adjustment indexes and their application to past-due amounts. Students learn which index applies to each entitlement type.

Lesson 2 • Interest and Penalty Calculations

Covers statutory interest rates, compounding rules, and late-payment penalties. These components are legally mandated additions to corrected principal amounts.

Lesson 3 • Time Period and Date Calculations

Covers how the system counts days, months, and years for entitlement periods. Accurate period calculation is the foundation of every monetary result.

Lesson 4 • Deductions and Withholding Basics

Introduces compulsory deductions such as social contributions and income tax withholding on labour awards. Correct deduction sequencing affects net payment totals.

Lesson 1 • Saving, Duplicating, and Archiving Files

Teaches save protocols, file duplication for similar cases, and archiving completed files. Good file management reduces rework and preserves calculation history.

Lesson 2 • Opening a New Case File

Walks through the case creation wizard, required fields, and initial data entry. A correctly opened file prevents downstream calculation errors.

Lesson 3 • Entering Employment Contract Data

Covers input of hire date, termination date, contract type, and salary history. This data drives all period and monetary calculations in the file.

Lesson 4 • Configuring Claim Components

Explains how to add, remove, and parameterise individual claim items within a case. Each component must be correctly configured to produce valid subtotals.

Lesson 1 • Notice Period and Indemnification

Computes worked and indemnified notice periods based on tenure and contract type. Correct notice calculation affects total severance package amounts.

Lesson 2 • Thirteenth Salary Calculation

Covers full and proportional thirteenth salary computation including variable pay inclusion. Accurate thirteenth salary feeds into severance and contribution bases.

Lesson 3 • Severance Fund Contributions

Calculates monthly deposits, correction, and penalty on the severance fund balance. Students learn how late deposits and corrections compound over time.

Lesson 4 • Holiday and Holiday Bonus

Calculates proportional and full holiday periods plus the compulsory one-third bonus. Students learn how interruptions and partial years affect totals.

Lesson 1 • Applying Interest to Corrected Amounts

Adds statutory interest to already-corrected principal values in the correct sequence. Sequencing errors cause over- or under-calculation of total awards.

Lesson 2 • Setting Reference and Calculation Dates

Defines the start and end dates used for correction and interest accumulation. Incorrect date boundaries produce systematically wrong monetary totals.

Lesson 3 • Reviewing and Validating Updated Totals

Uses built-in validation tools to cross-check corrected and interest-bearing totals. Students learn to identify and resolve discrepancies before finalising output.

Lesson 4 • Selecting the Correct Index

Maps each entitlement type to its applicable correction index within the system. Index mismatches are a leading source of calculation disputes.

Lesson 1 • Deduction Sequencing and Priority

Establishes the compulsory order in which deductions reduce the gross award total. Wrong sequencing changes net amounts and may violate regulatory requirements.

Lesson 2 • Social Contribution Calculation

Configures contribution bases, rate tables, and ceiling limits for social contributions. Correct contribution calculation protects both employer and worker entitlements.

Lesson 3 • Income Tax Withholding on Awards

Applies progressive tax tables to taxable award components after permitted deductions. Students learn which award components are taxable and which are exempt.

Lesson 4 • Employer Contribution Obligations

Calculates employer-side contributions triggered by the labour award payment. These obligations are separate from worker deductions and affect total case cost.

Lesson 1 • Submitting Documents to the Judicial System

Covers the submission workflow, confirmation receipts, and error handling for rejected filings. Successful submission closes the calculation phase of the proceeding.

Lesson 2 • Exporting to Required Formats

Covers export to PDF, spreadsheet, and system-native formats required by judicial workflows. Format selection affects downstream usability and legal validity.

Lesson 3 • Digital Signature and Authentication

Applies digital signatures and authentication tokens to finalised documents. Signed documents carry legal weight and cannot be altered without detection.

Lesson 4 • Standard Calculation Report Structure

Explains the compulsory sections, data fields, and layout of the official calculation report. Understanding report anatomy enables fast review and error detection.

Lesson 1 • Agreed Settlements and Partial Payments

Applies prior payments and agreed settlements as offsets against calculated totals. Accurate offset entry prevents double payment and disputes over remaining balances.

Lesson 2 • Partial and Proportional Entitlements

Calculates entitlements for incomplete periods, part-time schedules, and mixed-rate histories. Proportional logic must be applied consistently across all affected components.

Lesson 3 • Multiple Employment Contracts in One Case

Manages cases with successive or concurrent contracts requiring separate calculation threads. Correct contract segmentation prevents entitlement overlap or omission.

Lesson 4 • Recalculation After Judicial Decisions

Updates existing calculation files to reflect appellate rulings, partial grants, or remand orders. Recalculation must preserve the original file as an audit reference.
