LNP may describe unpaid leave while some benefits continue. Partial benefits is not a standard package: medical cover, retirement and other benefits can be treated differently.

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 no pay and partial 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

An unpaid month with continued medical cover can leave employee premiums payable directly or collected later.

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

What to check with payroll

Ask which benefits continue, who pays each cost and how any arrears will be recovered.
