Excess Compensation Requests — Instructions are guidelines provided by employers to their employees when requesting additional compensation. These guidelines provide details on how to submit a formal request for compensation, including the required documentation and any additional information that may be necessary. Generally, there are three types of Excess Compensation Requests — Instructions: 1. Lump Sum Requests: These requests involve an employee asking for a lump sum of money for a specific purpose. The employer must review the request and determine whether it is reasonable and necessary. 2. Incremental Requests: These requests involve an employee asking for incremental payments over a period of time. The employer must review the request and determine whether it is reasonable and necessary. 3. Retroactive Requests: These requests involve employees asking for retroactive payments for past work. The employer must review the request and determine whether it is reasonable and necessary. In all cases, employers must consider the employee’s request, review the relevant documentation, and make an appropriate decision. Employers may also require additional information from the employee before making a decision.
