How Do I Calculate February Salaries Without Overpaying? Need Help!

Hi, I work in a small firm. It's been 5 months since I joined this company. We basically have software for the calculation of employees' attendance. For all the months, we used a formula to calculate the salary, which is fixed salary divided by the number of days in a month multiplied by the number of days present for the employees. As it is the month of February, I am in a dilemma on how to calculate the salary for 28 days. I tried using the same formula by changing the number of days to 28. However, the salary to be paid is showing more than the fixed salary. Can anyone help me out with this?

Thank you in advance.

First, could you please tell me whether you work 5 days a week or 6 days a week? As part of calculating the salary, typically, 30 days are considered in a month, and the salary is paid for 26 days regardless of the number of weekends and the total number of days in a month.

Hi, we work six days a week. When calculating the salary, we include Sundays. Regardless of whether it's a 30-day month or a 31-day month, we consider the total number of days the employee is present when calculating the salary.
