# Pay Rates

> View and manage employee pay rate records, including hourly, salary, and per-diem rates, with history access.

The Pay Rates page lists and manages employee pay rate records and is available at `/hr/payroll/pay-rates`.

## Overview

The Pay Rates page (`PayRatesListPage`) displays a searchable, filterable list of employee pay rates. Rate type options include Hourly, Salary, and Per Diem. A status filter (Active/All) is available. Administrators can add a new pay rate via `PayRateFormDialog` and view rate history for an employee via `PayRateHistoryDialog`. Pay rate data is loaded via `usePayRates`.

## Who it's for

Access follows your organization's role and module configuration. ## Before you start

* Employee records must exist before pay rates can be added.
* Gather the rate details (type, amount, effective date) before opening the form.

## Steps

1. Navigate to `/hr/payroll/pay-rates`.
2. Use the search field to find an employee by name.
3. Use the rate type and status filters to narrow results.
4. Click **Add Pay Rate** (or equivalent) to open the pay rate form dialog.
5. To view history for an employee, use the history action on their row.

## Key concepts

* **Rate Type** — The category of the pay rate: Hourly (per hour worked), Salary (fixed periodic amount), or Per Diem (fixed daily amount).
* **Pay Rate History** — A log of all past and current pay rates for an employee, accessible via the history dialog.
