Issuing Employee ROE`s:
ROEs need to be coded with a reason for why they’re being issued:

Use Code A — Shortage of Work / End of Contract or Season if
You’ve closed your business or adjusted your workforce as a precaution.

Use Code D — Illness/Injury for:
Actual illness or an employee who has tested positive.
An employee who has travelled and is now self-isolating.

Use Code N — Leave of Absence if
The employee is showing no symptoms but is making a personal choice to distance themselves just to be safe.

NOTE: Do not put a note in BOX 18. This “flags” the ROE in the system and may slow processing.
