“Allowing for Allowances: Think They’re Trivial? Think Again”
Allowances—cash payments based on an employee’s status or assignment—are on the opposite end of the spectrum from “sexy.” They’re tedious, complicated, and dull, generally buried in the fine print of the policies manual. They’re commonly overlooked, even unknown by Compensation Analysts, and almost never captured in survey data. When considered at all, they’re usually considered inconsequential. But when added up, their amounts are not inconsequential, and in fact may be significant, particularly in some jobs/functions. Moreover, the calculation, recording, and delivery of allowances are non-trivial, and compliance with state and federal FLSA provisions is not always simple. Allowances are a case for compensation practitioners in which ignorance is not always bliss.
