Health Insurance with No Paycheck

We have an employee with NO December earnings.  He was granted time off without pay, since he wanted to make sure he didn't get COVID prior to the Holiday season.

 

The company pays half the employee's insurance premium and the employee pays the other half.  What is the best method to handle this since he has 0 earnings this month?  Do I handle it with Adjust Payroll Liabilities?

 

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply.  It isn't that I want to use Adjust Payroll Liabilities.   I just want to find the simpliest, most effective method to handle the situation.

Is the employee going to pay you out of pocket for the December premiums or are they going to be deducted from later payroll?

It will be deducted from a future payroll.  Most likely, it would be split across a few payroll checks in 2021.

Then this should be treated as an advance to the employee.
