Important: If you do not wish to display inactive or terminated workers in the Process Compensation Report, navigate to Setup > Setup Worker Details, select the worker profile, and change the Primary Compensation Method and/or Secondary Compensation Method to None. This will remove the worker from appearing in future Process Compensation Report generations.Important Note: Overtime (OT) Calculation in Inspire: Inspire does not automatically determine how many hours qualify as overtime. Overtime must be entered manually in the Overtime Hours field during the compensation process. Before generating compensation, you will need to review and confirm the employee’s regular hours and manually enter the number of hours that should be treated as overtime within Inspire. 
Overtime Calculation Formula Used by Inspire:
1.5 × Overtime Hours + Total Hours Worked = Adjusted Hours
Adjusted Hours × Hourly Rate = Total Compensation
Example:
- Worker total hours worked: 45 hours
- Hourly rate: $10/hour
- Overtime hours entered: 5 hours
Step 1: 1.5 × 5 overtime hours = 7.5
Step 2: 7.5 + 45 total hours = 52.5 adjusted hours
Step 3: 52.5 × $10 hourly rate = $525.00 compensation owed
Important Note: Refunds Deducted From Worker Compensation: When issuing a refund in Inspire, if the option “Deduct From the Worker” is selected, the refund amount will be applied as a deduction toward the assigned worker’s compensation. The deduction is applied based on the date the refund was processed — not the original service date.
