Generating the Record of Employment (ROE)
Electronic Filing for Record of Employment
The Record of Employment (ROE) government report provides the information you need for every employee who stops working in insurable employment. Service Canada uses the information on the ROE to determine whether a person is eligible to receive EI benefits, what the benefit amount will be, and for how long the benefits will be paid.
This report includes the information you enter or edit on Payroll’s online Record Of Employment window, and the EI information maintained by Payroll. On the Record Of Employment window, you can produce ROE information for the 53 week reporting format, if you plan to use the ROE Web function.
After you have completed the Record Of Employment window, you can produce the ROE by producing a file that you submit electronically (by Internet) to Service Canada’s ROE Web application.
