LFF may describe a leave arrangement continuing full salary and benefits. A status code can appear even when the normal salary and premium rows do not change.

Employer-specific label: this is a possible interpretation. Confirm the full meaning in the codebook for the employer that issued your statement.

How to read this entry

Use the possible interpretation Leave with full pay and full benefits alongside the column heading. An earnings amount, an employee deduction and an employer-cost memo can have different effects even when their labels look similar.

Example on a pay statement

A full-pay leave designation with the usual $2,000 salary should not be counted as an additional $2,000 unless a separate payment is actually present.

Examples illustrate the checking method. They are not a personal tax calculation or a promise of a particular benefit.

What to check with payroll

Check the leave agreement and whether employee premium deductions continue normally.
