Filing and completing the ROE for an employee

[Rodney]

When is the ROE filed and how can I complete my employee’s ROE?

[Shraddha]

Hi Rodney,

An ROE has to be filed when there is an interruption of earnings of seven days (known as the seven-day rule). The interruption of earnings occurs when there are seven consecutive days with no work and no insurable earnings, or when an employee’s salary falls below 60% of regular weekly earnings due to illness, injury, quarantine, pregnancy, etc.

If you are filing the ROE electronically, it must be issued within 5 calendar days of the end of the pay period in which the employee’s interruption of earnings occurs. If you are using a paper ROE, it must be issued within 5 calendar days of the employee’s interruption of earnings, or the date you become aware of the interruption of earnings.

You can complete the ROE through ROEweb either by using a Select Sign-In Partner; or GCKey.
