On the Setup tab, choose MA PFML as one of the deduction types.

The calculation for the employee contribution is built in, and is set at the maximum allowable rate (employer is not paying any of the employee portion).

 

If MA PFML is selected as one of the 'Deduction Types'

If the employer wishes to pay all of the insurance for a particular employee, mark the employee as exempt from the MA PFML deduction.

All employees are considered subject to PFML UNLESS the employee has been set as exempt from PFML AND the employee's State Tax Calculation is not MA.

 

If MA PFML is NOT selected as one of the 'Deduction Types'

If the first employee is set for MA State Tax Calculation, ALL employees are considered subject to MA PFML for reporting purposes, with the employer having elected to pay all of the employee's share.

 

NOTES

We do not offer a calculation for cases where an employer wishes to pay part of the employee's MA PFML obligation.

The State Tax Calculation for Employee 1 (the first employee) determines the state for report purposes.
