Note for hourly staffOn your support goal, you will be able to select a total ME amount per hour that will be multiplied by the number of hours worked. You will be eligible for up to a maximum of $3 per hour (for hours you work each month) for all ME Bonus categories (not each category). You may select the $3 amount or less based on your needs. This ME bonus will be automatically entered and paid with your time card hours each month. Example: You work 20 hours across an entire monthly time sheet. You have selected a $3 hourly ME bonus on your support goal. You will be automatically paid a $60 ME bonus for the month. Note: If your church or ministry is fully funding the MTD account you are responsible for, you may be eligible for a fixed amount hourly ME bonus that is agreed upon with Reliant and your supporting church, and approved within your support goal. |
