LEOFF
You need to compare time sheets to the transmittal reports you submitted to DRS for the audit year. Compare the hours and compensation you reported to us and all the hours and compensation you paid to the employee. For each LEOFF employee you selected, complete the Monthly Compensation Worksheet (include two months). While you complete the worksheet, you need to enter each payment type you pay the employee in the “Compensation Paid” column. For example:
- Regular hourly
- Compensatory time taken
- Overtime
- Vacation cash out
- Vacation
- Longevity pay
- Sick
- Education pay
- Holiday
- Extra duty pay
After you review the payment type list you created earlier and complete your worksheets
, verify whether or not each payment type you pay your employees is reportable to DRS. Select a plan and table to conduct your review.

Some types of reportable compensation may qualify as excess compensation. Select the table below to verify which types of compensation qualify:
- LEOFF 2 Excess Compensation
| LEOFF 2 | RCW/WAC | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Payment (overtime) greater than two times the regular pay. | RCW 41.50.150 (2)(d) | Double time and a half for a holiday is not considered excess compensation |
| Retirement or termination bonus | RCW 41.50.730 (2) WAC 415-104-395 |
If agreement requires additional service. |
If a payment qualifies as excess compensation, the employer is billed for the resulting increase in the retiree's benefit to offset the increased cost to the trust funds.
If you’re looking for a payment type that’s not included in the compensation tables, contact Employer Support Services or your assigned auditor.
